Talk:2022 Serbian general election#rfctag

{{ping|Number 57}} The current table is mixed up as it contains parties and electoral alliances. Official results instead only list who nominated the candidates (e.g. Vučić was nominated by the Together We Can Do Everything coalition, not the Serbian Progressive Party, Ponoš was nominated by the United for the Victory of Serbia coalition, not the People's Party). So, should the table only contain parties that the candidates were member of during the election or should it contain the nominators? Vacant0 (talk) 19:40, 24 June 2023 (UTC)

:I don't see an issue with keeping a mix, but we can change the heading of the column to "Party or alliance" if that works? Cheers, Number 57 19:44, 24 June 2023 (UTC)

::Yes, that could solve the issue. Vacant0 (talk) 19:45, 24 June 2023 (UTC)

:::I've also added the parameter to the parliamentary results table as the same applies there, not everything listed is a party. Vacant0 (talk) 20:02, 24 June 2023 (UTC)

The percentage are not correct. I tried to correct it but somebody return it. There is a reference to offitial results but they don't math with ones here. The reference is correct (Kovačević, Miladin (2022). [https://publikacije.stat.gov.rs/G2022/Pdf/G20226010.pdf Izbori za narodne poslanike Narodne skupštine Republike Srbije] (PDF) (in Serbian).

:All Wikipedia election articles use the percentages as calculated in the {{template|Election results}} template (RIK does it differently and that is why the percentages do not overlap). {{ping|Number 57}} could explain this better considering that I do not know the process behind calculating the percentages in the {{template|Election results}} template.

::The RIK publish the percentage of votes calculated using ALL votes cast because this is how they calculate the electoral threshold for the purpose of awarding seats. However, standard methodology of presenting election results is as a percentage of valid votes, hence the difference. Cheers, Number 57 21:22, 6 December 2023 (UTC)
