thread_title:  Footnotes 

message: I noticed the Template:Infobox UK constituency has fields that notate the electorates the preceded and succeed the respective electorate. This is something we should consider adding to this template. It would be especially useful for working on state electorates which have long histories and often multiple abolitions/redistributions.Siegfried Nugent (talk) 07:26, 21 October 2016 (UTC)

message: The AEC's licensing page that Kerry linked above appears to have been updated. It is now quite explicit in permitting derivative works. I have not looked yet at what data is available. It would be fancy to be able to show the changes over time of long-standing or historic electorates, instead of just listing the polling places in 1930-something. We have current maps on electorates, so maybe someone had already noticed that the licence changed. --Scott Davis Talk 02:42, 22 October 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: It seems like it's just the 2011 data? There's that other dataset that's CC-by-licensed, and it's probably easier to use that than comply with their unique take on the same conditions. The Drover's Wife (talk) 12:56, 22 October 2016 (UTC)
thread_title: Maps again

message: I reverted your last edit on this template as the coordinate string was getting rendered as parameters instead of coordinates in articles, and I couldn't see the underlying problem. Thanks for all the work you have been doing on coordinates. --Scott Davis Talk 11:47, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for catching that. It was sloppy of me. I'll figure it out in the sandbox and reimplement the fix. – Jonesey95 (talk) 14:17, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
replies: text:  I think that I have fixed it. Can you please verify? Thanks. – Jonesey95 (talk) 14:30, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
replies: text:  That looks better, thank you. A glance at your fix suggests that the error you fixed was not recently introduced, but something you had done suddenly made it matter. Well done for finding the problem. --Scott Davis Talk 23:03, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Honestly, I don't know what fixed it. If you look at the diff, what I did should not have made a difference. The span tag was cosmetic code cleanup. The only thing I see is a difference in white space, which doesn't usually affect the templates and parser functions that are being used, as far as I know. It appears that I do not know far enough, however. Anyway, it works now. Moving on. – Jonesey95 (talk) 01:24, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
