message: Well, it does look nicer now. Where did the information go though? It would have been nice to keep the updated info on BC, Alberta and Ontario. Will it be coming back?

message: I removed Muiclair as the NDP nominee for Laval as that as not been confirmed. He also has mused about running in the Outremont by-election so i dont think we can list him as the candidate for Laval yet.

Note that links like the one above will be gradually added to the table, as we at Wikinews get interviews with the candidates.  --  Zanimum (talk) 16:14, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

message: Some tables have the incumbents running for re-election in bold, and some do not; which should it be? -Rrius (talk) 05:18, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

message: Could someone who knows, please add the number of seats (out of 308) each party is contesting. I notice that there are separate articles for each Party & their candidates, but in most cases, you need to manually count, to work out how many seats that party is running in. --Mrodowicz (talk) 20:44, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

message: Not all candidates would deserve links to their own articles as per WP:POLITICIAN. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 03:08, 13 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I slightly disagree. There is indeed no need to wikilink candidates who fail WP:POLITICIAN test but for those who pass, a red link is not evil. They indicate that an article does not exist if someone wishes more info and then need not try to search for the article and it also invites editors to create the article and that is what this wiki is about. Multiple links to a non-existant article will also let it rise in the list of most-requested articles and draw attention to a good topic for editors to research and write.

message: By what rationale is this article ordered in such a way as the provinces are listed from east to west, and the territories from west to east?  Wouldn't it be more rational (and fair) to list them alphabetically? fishhead64 (talk) 01:27, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It is traditional to list them from East to West as it's the same way the results come in due to time zones. The territories are currently listed the same way. DoubleBlue (Talk) 04:01, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

message: I'd like to list results on the main page rather than in templates, moving it in line with the 2019 and 2021 articles. This would make future edits easier. Are there any objections? G. Timothy Walton (talk) 16:20, 9 September 2021 (UTC)
