@EhsanAhmed: I'm afraid I don't really have time to work on that at the moment, as I am trying to write articles on the first woman MPs in various countries. However, if you need any advice or tips on editing, I'd be happy to help. Number 57 12:31, 8 July 2020 (UTC)

Thanks,i was created a article about Zaker Party,but it got deleted i dont know why. EhsanAhmed (talk) 12:36, 8 July 2020 (UTC)

@EhsanAhmed: I had a look at the history and an earlier version got deleted in April because it was written by an account named "Zaker Party" and was written in a very promotional tone. After you recreated it, the article was moved to draftspace because in its initial form, it looked like this. Just make sure the article is fully formed before publishing it, and that it has a couple of references. Number 57 12:58, 8 July 2020 (UTC)

July 2020

Hello, I'm CommanderWaterford. I noticed that you recently removed content from 2016 Kosovan presidential election without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Misplaced Pages with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page.

Are we meant to respect an editor who racks up ~12K edits in two months...but ~90% of them automated? No, I didn't think so. Ironically, it probably puts them out of the running for noob treatment too... ——Serial 18:02, 9 July 2020 (UTC)

What exactly do you want to say ——Serial?! What kind of exact problem do you have with my edits?! Envy!? CommanderWaterford (talk) 18:04, 9 July 2020 (UTC)

——Serial Just what is wrong with auto edits? Just means that Waterford is good at detecting vandalism. ◊PRAHLAD (M•T•A•C) This message was left at 19:11, 9 July 2020 (UTC)

No, it doesn't mean they're really good at detecting vandalism; it means that they're more intent on mashing buttons than getting things right. It's not surprising in the least that you would think otherwise, however. Vandalism fighting is important, but treating Misplaced Pages as a MMORPG instead of an encyclopedia benefits no one.-- Jezebel's Ponyo 19:24, 9 July 2020 (UTC)

Ponyo, thanks for clarifying. ◊PRAHLAD (M•T•A•C) This message was left at 20:01, 9 July 2020 (UTC)

I am sorry

Sorry, I made a mistake, regulating you with an uw-delete1 template - really sorry for that. Hope you accept my excuse. CommanderWaterford (talk) 18:56, 9 July 2020 (UTC)

First women elected to the Indonesian parliament

Hi Number 57. As you say, the 1955 Indonesian legislative election was the first democratic election in Indonesia - all previous legislative assemblies had appointed memberships. There is an elderly scanned document Hasil Rakjat Memilih Tokoh-tokoh Parlemen (Hasil Pemilihan Umum Pertama - 1955) di Republik Indonesia (Results of the People Voting for Parliamentary Members (Results of the First General Elections - 1955) in the Republic of Indonesia on the Indonesian legislature (DPR) repository website - http://repositori.dpr.go.id/100/. As it has photos of all the members, you could go through all four volumes counting... However, it also includes representatives who replaced elected members ("Pengganti anggota terpilih") for reasons such as the elected member being appointed to the cabinet.

Historia magazine, which seems to be a pretty reliable source, has an article specifically on what you're looking for at https://historia.id/politik/articles/perempuan-dalam-pemilu-pertama-6k4qn ("Perempuan dalam Pemilu Pertama" - "Women in the First Election). The last sentence reads, "Dari 257 kursi di DPR, hanya ada 19 perempuan yang terpilih, yakni 4 orang dari PNI dan Masyumi, 5 dari NU, serta 1 dari PSI.", or "Of 257 seats in the DPR, only 19 women were elected, namely 4 from the PNI and Masyumi, 5 from the NU and one from the PSI." Unfortunately, 4+4+5+1=14 !

Slightly different numbers (17 women) are in the second row of the table on page 719 of an article from the also credible Jurnal Konstitusi - https://mkri.id/public/content/infoumum/penelitian/pdf/Keterwakilan%20Perempuan%20di%20DPR.pdf.

Confusingly, according to the Indonesian Central Statistics Agency at https://www.bps.go.id/statictable/2014/09/12/1172/anggota-dewan-perwakilan-rakyat-dpr-menurut-jenis-kelamin-1955-2014.html, there were 16 women out of 272 seats.

All this is the kind of inconsistency that drives editors on the Indonesian Project to despair. I'm not sure how helpful this is - the only thing we can be certain of is that a number of women were elected for the first time in 1955. Take care. Davidelit (Talk) 04:52, 11 July 2020 (UTC)

Hi User Number 57,

It is clear you have a conflict of interest in guarding the page of Eniola Aluko fiercely to prevent further edits that are based on reliable sources that have been provided to add facts and context to what is quite clearly negative editing on her page. This is now the subject of legal investigation.
