Greetings,
I saw that you're removing some templates from articles about Canadian politicians [1]. You might have a good reason for this but I wasn't sure since there wasn't an edit summary. What's your purpose? Cheers, Cheerful Squirrel ( talk) 23:11, 27 June 2021 (UTC)
Hey, can you please be sure to add the electoral district to the Canadian election templates you create? Like this. Thanks! Elli ( talk | contribs) 03:03, 4 July 2021 (UTC)

Hi Ebbedlila, I just wanted to give you a heads up that when you add section titles to articles, they should be added in sentence case per MOS:Head. For example, "Electoral History" should be "Electoral history". I noticed that you have added the incorrect format to a lot of articles, but I'll try to fix as many as I can to help you out here. Regardless of the formatting mistakes, you're doing great work to get the election results updated. Cmr08 ( talk) 07:34, 20 July 2021 (UTC)

Hi Ebbedlilia.
Most importantly, thanks for updating the wikilinks for Louise Charbonneau.
A minor quibble - when you do such updates, it would be less confusing to describe it as wikilink updated than page moved, which has a very specific meaning in page histories.
Keep up the good work with the wikilinks. G. Timothy Walton ( talk) 16:45, 2 August 2021 (UTC)
Hi Ebbedlila, I've reverted your two additions to the articles on King and Diefenbaker. That's not a comment on the value of the templates you've done for Prince Albert; just that there are already two articles dealing with the electoral histories for those two PMs, covering their entire electoral histories, not just the PA riding. Each of the PMs has their own "Electoral history of" pages. Given the length of the electoral histories and the pages about the PMs themselves, the electoral histories have been split out. Please feel free to add to, edit, and improve those "Electoral history of" pages. Best wishes, Mr Serjeant Buzfuz ( talk) 15:02, 7 August 2021 (UTC)
Mr Serjeant Buzfuz oh thank you for the explanation. I appreciate it. Ebbedlila ( talk) 15:06, 7 August 2021 (UTC)

Hi, could you please tag your mass edits to template date fields with the "minor edit" flag? Because you're hitting an entire subject area at the same time, you're effectively taking up the entire watchlists of quite a few Australian editors and we're unable to filter them out because you didn't mark them as minor edits. This may mean, for example, that vandalism that occurred before you started goes unseen and untouched because you pushed it out of the watchlists of everyone who had it on there.

When making a politician’s page make sure to include an Infobox Bigmike2346 ( talk) 14:20, 15 August 2021 (UTC)
In some of your recent edits, you have been changing dates on maintenance templates like {{
use mdy dates}}
. Please note the date can't be in the future (e.g September 2021) as there is no corresponding category for future month/years.

Hey, I appreciate your efforts to document past Canadian elections, but could you please make sure to cite your sources? This is very important, especially in templates that are going to be used in multiple places. It's nearly impossible for someone to look at a template like Template:Canadian federal election, 1867/Albert and see where the data came from. Thanks!
