Brisbane Times leaders' debate poll

Shoulld the results of this poll be included on this page, as they currently are in the 'campaign' section? The Brisbane Times does warn that 'These polls are not scientific and reflect the opinion only of visitors who have chosen to participate.' At the very least there should probably be a clarification of the nature of the poll, given anyone could vote on it regardless of where they live in Australia or the world at large. It's not up to the standard of professional polling, more in line with anonymous votes cast on social media such as Facebook and Twitter/X. The2016 (talk) 09:10, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Names of Parties

What is the correct formatting for Party names in state elections?

The 2020 Qld state election, 2024 ACT election, and NSW 2023 State election list the state branch party names.

@The2016 undid a revision to registered party names as per the cited source. Do you have a precedence for similar pages that would suggest we use the colloquial or national party names? Mc4101 (talk) 04:58, 7 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your edit is correct, actually. It was late at night when I edited the page and I had misremembered the format used on 2020 Queensland state election. Looking at it now I think it was because One Nation, Legalise Cannabis and the Animal Justice Party were listed incorrectly on that page, rather than you being the one who made a mistake on this one.
