[edit] Map

The constituencies map needs updating - it currently shows 7 Labour and 7 Conservative, rather than 6 and 8 respectively. I think it's Merton & Wandsworth that's wrong (my London geography is less than brilliant ;) Sjorford 17:16, 25 Feb 2004 (UTC)

It is, indeed, Merton & Wandsworth; sadly, however, because the image is antialiased, I can't update it myself; I'll ask Morwen.

Done. Morwen 18:22, Feb 25, 2004 (UTC)
... or, of course, I could just procrastinate and let the wonderful Morwen find out for herself :-)

[edit] Ordering

The original ordering, by me, was

Green, Labour, LibDem, Tory

ie alphabetical, but using informal names

Someone later changed those to the formal terms for the parties (Liberal Democrats, Conservative), without noticing the list needed resorting. Morwen 20:09, May 9, 2004 (UTC)

Ah, that explains the otherwise odd order but ordering by number of seats has other benefits anyway. --VampWillow 20:29, 2004 May 9 (UTC)

[edit] Election System

If you follow the link to the Additional Member System page, the page is about a 'family' of election systems and London uses the Parallel voting branch so the page really should link to there instead. But isn't it referred to as Additional Member System in London? Don't want to make a change just to have it reverted by someone because its confusing. Mattlore (talk) 06:00, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
