Canidate Colors/Gradients (Updated)[edit]
With Matthew McMullin, the former head Wikipedia editor responsible for updating the candidate color shading page, stepping away from the project due to disputes and conduct disagreements with other users, the page has remained neglected for nearly a month. Since the page hadn't seen any updates, discussions among Wikipedia users took place on the talk page, resulting in an agreement to overhaul the candidate colors. However, this overhaul wasn't executed, leaving the page outdated in terms of new entrants and prominent candidates such as Hurd, Johnson, and Binkley.
In light of this situation, I, a frequent contributor to this Wikipedia page, have taken the initiative to undertake the task of overhauling the candidate shadings. The goal is to provide a more accurate representation and include additional shading for candidates who have garnered prominence and have been featured on the main candidates page.
As a result, I have restructured the original "Candidate colors/gradients" section, to remove it as the main discussion, as it has since been abandoned. This separation acknowledges that this space now serves as the primary hub for discussions concerning candidate color representation. - Expoe34 (talk) 13:28, 26 August 2023 (CST)

·Edit 1: With Saurez out of the race, I gave his more distinct brown color to Binkley, whose shading was a tad too similar to DeSantis and Burgum.- Expoe34 (talk) 13:28, 26 August 2023 (CST)
·Edit 2: Removed Suarez and have given his color to Ryan Binkley (Previously light red) Expoe34 (talk)
·Edit 3: I have removed Hurd and Given his color to Perry Johnson, as per the Wikipedia page. In addition, I have given Stapleton a more distinct red shading - Expoe34 (talk) 17:10, 10 October 2023 (CST)
·Edit 3: With Corey Stapleton out of the reace, I gave his color to Perry Johnson. - Expoe34 (talk) 17:07, 13 October 2023 (CST)
·Edit 4: Removed Perry Johnson - Expoe34 (talk) 17:07, 13 October 2023 (CST)
·Edit 4: Removed Binkley along with all withdrawn candidates so far - Expoe34 (talk) 13:53, 21 November 2023 (CST)

- Now that Suarez has withdrawn before the primaries, should we free up his color and give it to someone else? Maybe Burgum or Binkley because they have fairly similar colors. QuailWatts (talk) 20:27, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
- Good Idea! I've since made the tweak to Binkley's color Expoe34 (talk) 21:43, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
- The colors for DeSantis and Haley seem fairly similar to me. Could one of them be assigned a different color scheme? --Metropolitan90 (talk) 20:10, 2 December 2023 (UTC)
- I don't disagree, especially as Haley and Ramaswamy look similar as well, but do you have any suggestions of what to change it to? I'm having trouble finding a better color for Haley. Przemysl15 (talk) 09:47, 3 December 2023 (UTC)
- Metropolitan90, do you mean for the <30% shade, as by comparing them directly, I can see where there's some confusion. However, for the deeper shades, they're starkly different even when I tested color blind settings. Expoe34 (talk) 00:21, 10 December 2023 (UTC)

Michigan[edit]
Sorry if I missed a past discussion, but IMO Michigan should just count as one state. If there was a situation where a different candidate won the primary/caucus we could discuss, but this just makes it overly complicated. Like are we counting the South Dakota primary/convention as two contests too? Crazysportsdude1 (talk) 22:58, 28 March 2024 (UTC)
Trump image used[edit]
I suggest we use this one: File:Donald Trump (53299658788) (cropped).jpg
It's front-facing and not at an angle that potentially obscures trump's face like the first image. Furthermore, it's more recent Expoe34 (talk) 02:30, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
- No, in my opinion, he is smiling awkwardly in your suggestion which doesn't fit well for a picture for objective to represent him and I think the current picture doesn't hide enough of his face for having a need to change it Punker85 (talk) 15:39, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
Map[edit]
Trump's won Wyoming & Puerto Rico. GoodDay (talk) 00:54, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
Cancelled primaries[edit]
Like the map on the Democratic primaries, it might be better to put DE and SD as black because they have been cancelled. Auerstaedt (talk) 07:45, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
