:Council by-elections take place throughout the year. There is nothing different about ones which coincide with the topic of the article, which are scheduled local elections. If we were going to include council by-elections on this page it would not make sense to limit them to those on the same day as other local elections. (We shouldn't include them here—they make more sense in individual council election articles). [[User:Ralbegen|Ralbegen]] ([[User talk:Ralbegen|talk]]) 17:03, 24 April 2024 (UTC) |

*:I agreed they should be mentioned. Perhaps a new rule can be set in only applies to ones where the council is not up. the same for the general election later this year. [[User:Bentley4|Bentley4]] ([[User talk:Bentley4|talk]]) 00:04, 25 April 2024 (UTC) |

English local elections
Is there a reason for this article being called "2024 United Kingdom local elections" instead of "2024 English local elections", there are only 'local' elections in England not accross the whole of the UK LandmarkFilly54 (talk) 12:25, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
- There are PCC elections in Wales, and the YYYY United Kingdom local elections article series is a well-established framework for local elections occurring in whichever parts of the UK are holding them in that year. Ralbegen (talk) 14:02, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
Local By Elections
Someone started a section for local by elections being held on the same day in councils not up this year and it was deleted. What is wrong with including this section?
- Council by-elections take place throughout the year. There is nothing different about ones which coincide with the topic of the article, which are scheduled local elections. If we were going to include council by-elections on this page it would not make sense to limit them to those on the same day as other local elections. (We shouldn't include them here—they make more sense in individual council election articles). Ralbegen (talk) 17:03, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
