1976 Egyptian election

Hi Walknack. I've removed the infobox you added to Egyptian parliamentary election, 1976 as I think it may be wrong. Firstly the parties are wrong (the ASU didn't participate as it had split into the three organisations that did), and secondly it includes vote figures that are not in the results table (or did you get these from somewhere else? If so, could you give me a link?). Cheers, Number 5 7 12:32, 3 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Also, where did you get the figures for the infobox for Egyptian parliamentary election, 1990 and Egyptian parliamentary election, 1995? Number 5 7 12:53, 3 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect assumptions for election results

Hello again. I've just seen you created an Electoral results table on the Liberal Constitutional Party (Egypt) article, which includes the percentage of votes received. However, the articles do not have figures for these elections. What it looks like you have done is to calculate the percentage of seats, and assumed this is the same as the votes received. Could you confirm whether this is the case? If so, this is false information, and needs to be removed. If you do have the vote figures somewhere, can you provide a reference or link. Thanks, Number 5 7 16:41, 3 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It seems this is what you have done for several parties and election infoboxes, so I am now removing the percentages. Number 5 7 16:44, 3 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Wallknack. Thanks for your message. This is not how you should be calculating percentages – they should only be from the vote figures, not from the number of seats. Number 5 7 12:52, 5 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
