Number of votes for Poneke/Wellington Constituency candidates

It seems that after iteration 9, many of the candidates begin having the same number of votes, though this is not the same as what happens in the source. The top three rows in particular; Independent Simon Woolf, Green's Yadana Saw, and Green's Thomas Nash begin having the same (or close to the same) number of votes despite the source referenced not having these numbers for these iterations. For example, iteration 10 states that Yadana Saw and Simon Woolf both had 10,239 votes, whereas the results declaration says that Woolf should only have 9,959. Is this some sort of Wikipedia-specific convention / calculation I'm missing? kawion (￣ω￣ ) (talk) 07:12, 3 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Kia ora, yeah idk what went wrong when I copied the values over, odd. I'll fix this later when I have time. TheLoyalOrder (talk) 20:02, 3 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Support moving the 2010, 2016, 2019 & 2022 pages. However, the 2013 page only covers the Wellington City Council elections for that year, so I don't think that page should be moved as it is currently.-Radicuil (talk) 08:44, 11 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Support all. While the current 2013 page seems to only mention Wellington city council, for consistency I'd move that one too; and to be honest I think there was a 2013 Greater Wellington election so it's probably just missing from the page. — Amakuru (talk) 17:38, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Instead, I suggest that we split the articles into elections for each local council as per the discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject New Zealand/politics#Local elections. Schwede 66 05:47, 1 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Support. The UK local election articles are set up like this, common sense really. Jenkowelten (talk) 11:09, 23 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
