Timeline of Canadian elections[edit]

  1. Wikipedia's best work: Provides information in a format that cannot be found elsewhere on the internet.
  2. Useful, comprehensive, factually accurate, stable, and well-organised:
    • Useful: Provides a summary of results of 426 provincial, territorial and federal elections since Confederation (or creation). The vast majority (396 out of 426 - 93%) of election links are bluelinks.
    • Comprehensive: Covers all general elections provincial, territorial and federal elections since Confederation (or creation).
    • Factually accurate: references given, neatly organised by area.
    • Stable: Will be only be updated (on average) every few months.
  3. Well-organised: Easy to find any required information; split into 40-year sections.
  4. Uncontroversial: no edit wars or disuptes
  5. Standards / style manual: Layout is clear and concise as is reasonably possible.
  6. Images: N/A - no images

  • Support. Incredible work. Complete, clear visual layout, parallel chronology of all elections. I already use it as a reference. dh ▪ 10:36, 26 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. There are still a few red links, but this is a great summary list, complete, well organised, well referenced. Good work. --Qyd 17:32, 27 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Strong support Extremely well-done, and as the nominator points out, everything one would like to see in an FL. -- Kicking222 18:48, 28 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • support good list Hmains 05:04, 29 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. There just seems to be a space between the "NU" and "Federal" columns, otherwise an excellent list. Michaelas10 (Talk) 17:06, 29 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • That's intentional. Tompw (talk) 18:38, 29 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
      • I don't see any need in it, if there is a width problem you can adjust the width of the table in percentage. Michaelas10 (Talk) 18:54, 29 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
        • It's there to seperate the Federal from the provinvial/territorial elecions. Tompw (talk) 19:21, 29 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
          • Isn't the normal line seperation enough? I still fail to understand why it's useful for the list. Michaelas10 (Talk) 19:44, 29 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
            • It was just there to make the federal "extra" seperate. It's not a big deal... if you thik it should go, change it. This is a wiki, after all :-) Tompw (talk) 21:36, 29 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
              • Sure, I understand. Sorry for going "too much into details". Michaelas10 (Talk) 21:41, 29 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. Great list, very complete and informative. --Wizardman 18:18, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
