Template talk:Irish elections
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I changed this template to use the Navigation box template and I changed the colour to match all the other Irish political templates, including the Presidents, Taoiseach, Tanaiste, Ceann Comhairle among others. Even the political offices ({{s-off}}) matches. Number57 claims my changes look awful, I think his changes are equally vile. Nobody asked him to change an Irish template and make it look a) rubbish and b) different in colour and style to the rest of the Irish political templates. Perhaps he'd be better off fixing the international series to make them look less pants.
And while I'm on the subject what was the point of lumping in the Irish Referenda in the Irish Elections box, they are not elections so should not be there. There already is a template for Irish referenda and one that has all the links working unlike the poor job that was done of the duplicate one.
Furthermore, if you are going to have an Irish elections box where are the European elections and the Local elections? And when you're done making with them add in the Udaras na Gaeltacht elections as well to make a complete dog's dinner of it! Snappy56 21:13, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
- The "elections" template is a standardised series which will eventually cover all countries in the world (see here for a full list). The templates only cover elections or votes held at the national level. Therefore EU elections has its own template, and so will local elections in the near future.
- Also, why do I think it looks worse? Having three stacked boxes rather than one combined one, plus the hide and v-d-e options on all three is a little silly. However, I have left your chang to the headers making them links, as this is a good idea. Number 57 21:28, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

- Fair enough, I'll go with the International series done by Number57 then. Snappy56 16:04, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
