Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Party standings in the House of Commons of Canada
I've advocated getting rid of these for ''years''. All they do is replicate |primary sourced information of little actual ''utility'' — the only people who actually ''need'' to know that Kim Rudd sits directly in front of Julie Dabrusin, or that Bob Saroya sits next to Jamie Schmale, or ''exactly'' which curtain-skirting seat in the peanut gallery Hunter Tootoo's been banished to, are ''employees'' of the House of Commons who already have access to the House's own internal charts. And the nature of Wikipedia means that the information can't be provided without violating our article ''design'' principles — actually reading a Wikipedia article should ''never'' require scrolling ''left to right'' because the page can't be constrained to a ''normal'' monitor resolution. ''Any'' other article that did that would be flagged as having a technical fuckuppery problem that needed ''fixed''. These simply don't actually serve any substantive need; like a lot of other types of Wikipedia content that we've deprecated, they're a thing some people thought were useful at one time, but have come to look a lot less useful as our principles and best practices and content standards have evolved. Yes, others exist — they should be deleted too, because they're just not ''useful''. (And can we please try to ''finally'' kill the comprehensive candidate lists that either violate  or just unnecessarily reduplicate election results tables next, too
