[edit] More Italian MEPs?

According to the European Parliament website, the two Italian MEPs elected on the Partito Socialista - Nuovo PSI ticket now caucus with the PES/PSE. --Free Socialist 00:08, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Languages in infobox

Wouldn't it be more logical if either only English or all official languages of the EU were included in the infobox (but then with a hide option)? Spanish hasn't got that much more native speakers within the EU than Polish for instance.--Roofbird (talk) 12:59, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Name change?

According to the EU Parliament election page the PES are to change name before 2009 but there is no source on this, and I can't find one either. Anyone heard of something like that? See European_Parliament_election,_2009#Other_issues --Jonte-- (talk) 15:26, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

I have heard of this outside wikipedia, although I can't recall the exact sources. This is only rumoured so far. Supposedly any renaming will be to accommodate heterogeneous parties such as Italy's new Democratic Party and shift the PES into being a more general centre-left grouping rather than an explicitly social-democratic one.--Free Socialist 20:08, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
