Am I the only one for whom the sorting of this list does not work? Whatever one I click, there is no logical order to these numbers ascending or descending.- _J.Logan`^t: 15:38, 16 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sorted this.- _J.Logan`^t: 10:12, 6 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Added some population stats and fixed everything except "Upper House" Sandcat01 (talk) 23:28, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps this list should include a listing of legislators per capita? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.189.155.116 (talk) 03:07, 10 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sorting fix?

How about replacing that dash with a zero to aid sorting. Yes, its a kludge. Sandcat01 (talk) 23:30, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

That may be misleading. If you think it needs doing then try;

<span style="display:none">invisible to eye but visible to sort</span>visible to eye

So that would be;

<span style="display:none">0</span>—

@Sandcat01 @JLogan I just fixed sorting. Please let me know if you can still see any sorting problems. Grillofrances (talk) 03:09, 4 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Edit summary by User:Sfs90

User:Sfs90 said in an edit summary: "Undid revision 627121738 by Pristino (talk) Added reference about Fiji (you also should look at the article that Aight 2009 said, and don't make arbitrary reversions)"

I wouldn't call it an "arbitrary reversion". He provided no reference to his edit. It is not my job to go look for a reference to justify his edit, nor to look to some Wikipedia article to find one. It is his job to do that. He provided no reference so I reverted it and you know you would do the same if I were to add unreferenced information. Your edit summary therefore is quite unjustified. Cheers. Pristino (talk) 21:19, 27 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You're right: you don't have the obligation to find a source for that information, but you can't keep information that is incorrect or outdated. Regards. --Sfs90 (talk) 04:28, 29 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Example confusion

The wording is confusing in the example for Germany.
It states that the Bundestag is unicameral, whereas the table below and the german government page both talk about the Bundesrat as well.
So I would suppose that it is meant to say bicameral?
But maybe it is making a reference to some other feature about the legislature?

I was sufficiently confused such that I didn't want to make a minor edit that would be wrong. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Endymon (talk • contribs) 21:28, 27 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Republic of China

One user by the name of "RovingPersonalityConduct" insists Taiwan's legislature is "unicameral" but we are talking about the polity of the state that controls Taiwan. Why did it got removed? Until we debate that the ROC parliament is tricameral per constitution, I am temporarily reverting the edits until it’s resolved. -76.68.77.224 (talk) 11:04, 15 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I have requested input from Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Taiwan#Structure of the ROC/Taiwan parliament and reverted the changes pending a revision of the current consensus, which seems to to consider the ROC parliament to be unicameral.

In the meantime, 76.68.77.224, please restate your argument with references so its clear for everybody. - RovingPersonalityConstruct (talk, contribs) 21:52, 15 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Give me a second. Will one of these help?

From the looks of it, the ROC never gave up the claims of Mainland China, so the original ROC constitution is still nominally alive including the tricameral parliament. Check the original ROC constitution. Officially speaking, it only exists de jure, but operating as a de facto unicameral under the Additional Articles. Read all of them and come back to me. 76.68.77.224 (talk) 23:03, 15 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The first source very clearly says "Taiwan has two unicameral legislative bodies...The highest legislative organ in Taiwan is the Legislative Yuan. It has 225 members elected for three-year terms...The other unicameral legislative body is the National Assembly....non-standing body with delegates nominated by political parties on the basis of proportional representation". So that source pretty clearly supports a unicameral legislature, plus a second non-standing legislature. Notably, it is from March 2005, which is before the June 2005 dissolution of the National Assembly, so that leaves one unicameral legislature. Based on that source you provided, it seems a unicameral legislature is correct. CMD (talk) 07:33, 16 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, there is a third: Control Yuan.

Last election for the upper house of the Chinese parliament was on 3 January 1948. In 1992, elections for that de facto ceased although it continues de jure. Since the 5th/6th amendments, the appointment of the members within the CY must be accepted by the Legislative Yuan instead. 76.68.77.224 (talk) 10:04, 16 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
