Template talk:Infobox U.S. congressional district

message: Is there a source of the blue collar and white color info? Also is there a source for the cpvi number? The census numbers can be found easily at the US Census bureau, but these seem to be a bit harder to find. Thanks for the links in advance. --Dual Freq 01:51, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

message: When "Georgia" is input to the state field of this infobox., it generates a link to Georgia, which is a disambiguation page. It should link to Georgia (U.S. state). Replacing "Georgia" with "Georgia (U.S. state)" does generate the correct link, but it displays as "Georgia (U.S. state)", and the display is not-responsive to piping (i.e., "Georgia (U.S. state)|Georgia" displays as "Georgia (U.S. state)". I would be grateful if this could be fixed. DuncanHill (talk) 10:20, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Georgia and disambiguation 

message: Why? The only state that needs (U.S. state) to disambiguate it is Georgia, so why is it automatically added to all of these infoboxes? E.g. Puerto Rico's At-large congressional district, which creates a redlink to Puerto Rico (U.S. state). In addition to the fact that this is entirely unnecessary, it is also inaccurate; Puerto Rico is not a state at all, but a commonwealth in association with the United States. Can someone fix this? —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 06:01, 20 September 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Tons of unnecessary disambiguation and broken links 

message: Could the Area lines allow for automatic conversion via the convert template? And I don't like mi² at all; it may be familiar in a few technical fields, although most scientists and engineers use metric and not miles, but just takes the average reader aback. Part of it is just a typographical quirk because "i" is a thin letter with a dot on top, so at the reduced scale of the Infobox, "mi²" looks too much like "m²". "Sq mi" or "square miles" is much better. (I learned on the Manual of Style date & number talk page, however, that while sq km used to be clear to English-speakers, km² is apparently the only familiar form nowadays.) —— Shakescene (talk) 04:34, 30 May 2009 (UTC)

message: Is there any way to pipe the links in the residence field? Currently, Ohio's 8th congressional district is linking to West Chester, Ohio, which is a disambiguation page. -LtNOWIS (talk) 00:27, 16 November 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  white hispanics? 

message: Granted, this is only applicable to about half of U.S. states, but it might be nice to add 'parameter' fields to the Infobox for: % voters registered Democratic, % voters registered Republican, and % voters registered "other" (though this last one could be split in to "% voters registered in third parties" and "% voters registered independent"). I probably am not good enough with template code to add these to the Infobox myself, but if there's interest, I can think of a number of articles in which these figures could be added to the Infobox as soon as those parameters are put in to the code. --IJBall (talk) 08:39, 20 December 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  Disambiguation fix needed. 

message: The documentation said "percent native hawaiian" and "percent more than one race" existed(ie documented) but they were not implemented.  I've taken a stab at implementing them.  Ahwiv (talk) 01:42, 18 April 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Please see Wikipedia:Help_desk#Texas'_30th_Congressional_District_election,_2018. The infobox shows a set of ethnic groups apparently adding up to well over 100% of the total. Would it be better to reorganise this part of the template to make it clear that the "Hispanic" classification is separate to the "race" classification?: Noyster  (talk),  11:43, 7 March 2018 (UTC)

message: American Samoa's at-large congressional district has a very, very large category of "other", probably Samoans. Should this template have a field for Samoans, or should they just be under "other", "Native American", or "Asian"?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by DemonDays64 (talk • contribs) 23:59, 6 July 2019 (UTC)

message: I encountered this concern while editing NJ 3rd's page. I've just addressed my concern at a Wikipedia 'Race and ethnicity' talk page and won't repeat it all here. However, if no good arguments emerge here or there contrary to my idea, I think I'll proceed to try to make the change as proposed in my title question. The issue of footnoting the line-percentages, also mentioned a little at the 'Race and ethnicity' page, I'd try to address too -- though it may be more than I can handle technically. Thanks.
