French polling graph

Please, stop replacing the graph I created with an identical graph whose only difference is being created by yourself. If you think anything can be improved you should discuss it instead of uploading duplicated files. Basque mapping (talk) 13:17, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

I initially wasn't aware you were intent on updating the file, so I created my version in order to have one that I am able to update regularly. I've had experience replacing abandoned polling graphs before and decided it's best not to wait and just to make sure that the page is up-to-date. The reason I put my version back after you reverted it is because I think the smoothing options you chose aren't as good at depicting the change in vote share and I personally think that the 5% breaks make more sense here as the numbers are lower and the polls are closer than a lot of other polls.

My recommendations for your graph are that you change the smoothing to something closer to 8.500-8.750 and that you add ,breaks = seq(0,35, by = 5) after limits=c(1,35).

I'm sorry I didn't realise you were the original creator of the French opinion polling graph and that I assumed you'd forgotten about it (like the previous people with the Swedish, Danish, Norwegian, and Austrian graphs before me). GlowstoneUnknown (talk) 13:33, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

Hi! Thanks for the answer. I've changed the smooth to 9.0 but I haven't changed the 10% breaks (as this are almost always used in other graphs). I can't guarantee you updating the graph everyday, but I will do my best to maintain the graph updated. Now I'm going to replace the graphs on the polling articles. Cheers!

File:Opinion polling for the 2024 Austrian legislative election.svg

i think there is a KPÖ poll missing (1%; 17–21 Feb 2023) could you add their election result too? Braganza (talk) 16:49, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for drawing this to my attention, but thankfully past me noticed this, and when I checked my CSV, it was already included, I must have noticed the efn before whilst I was setting up the R code. – GlowstoneUnknown (Talk) 02:11, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

i think adding their 2019 result would push the KPÖ line down at the start before their actual breakthrough (there was only one scenario like poll which had them at 4%) Braganza (talk) 10:50, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

The CSV includes their 2019 result, just for some reason the line won't go back that far when I generate it, probably because of smoothing issues with extrapolating a line between two points that long – GlowstoneUnknown (Talk) 11:35, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

i see but but the "crystal" is not visible either for some reason

anyway if it was missing, i had ask you to include Wandl too but i guess it won't work either ;) Braganza (talk) 13:43, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

Yeah the crystal won't show up no matter what I do for whatever reason, I've since added the polls for KEINE & LMP, but the crystal won't show up for them either I believe. – GlowstoneUnknown (Talk) 13:46, 25 August 2024 (UTC)

Norwegian threshold

Hi! I noticed you moved the Norwegian threshold in the 2025 polling graph from 4% to 3%. As far as I know, no change has been made to the threshold in the election law, nor is it scheduled to be done at some point before the 2025 election either. I could have somehow missed it, I suppose, so I was wondering if you could share what you based this change on? Cheers! Μαρκος Δ (talk) 12:22, 4 September 2024 (UTC)

Hi, I implemented this change largely based on this passage in the 2021 page, to be fair, I didn't reconcile this with other sources and it may not have been implemented after the change of government. I should have fact checked that, my bad. – GlowstoneUnknown (Talk) 12:30, 4 September 2024 (UTC)

Ah I see, that's understandable! However, valglovutvalget (essentially an electoral law reviewing committee, which is re-appointed and makes new reports every couple of years) does not make any binding decisions, just recommendations. They recommended a 3% threshold, but none of the politicians with the power to do so, including Solberg, have given any signal that they're going to actually make that change, unfortunately, so it should still be 4%. Thanks for the explanation though, and sorry to intrude :) Μαρκος Δ (talk) 22:30, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

No need to apologize, thanks for pointing it out and helping make the encyclopædia better, I've since reverted the change on the file. – GlowstoneUnknown (Talk) 02:03, 7 September 2024 (UTC)
