Talk:United Kingdom local elections, 2008

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Last Local Elections were in May 2007

[edit] Youngest candidate

I have removed the following from the article:-

"2008 will be the second year that those aged 18 to 20 will be allowed to stand. The youngest candidate standing in a district authority election is Jonathan Pryor in Chorley North-West in the Chorley Borough.[citation needed] He will be 18 years and 336 days old on May 1."

This is because this states that the youngest candidate is Harriet Thomson standing in Poole. Davewild (talk) 17:22, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Just realised that the link I use above is for 2007 but still think it should be removed as the paragraph was unsourced and the Jonathan Pryor article is up for deletion as well. Davewild (talk) 17:57, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Sorting

There appears to be a problem with sorting the tables, sorting by "Previous control" appears to do nothing while sorting by "Result" sorts on "Previous control". Probably something to do with the column span on the table. Any one know how to fix it? Keith D (talk) 20:39, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
