Thanks for your contributions to 2025 Northampton Town Council election. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit the draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 09:57, 18 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Infobox general election has been nominated for discussion. You are invited to comment on the discussion at the entry on the Templates for discussion page. Zackmann (^{Talk to me}/_{What I been doing}) 09:30, 30 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

So, I’m going to withdraw my TFD for now since this is very much a WIP. While I greatly appreciate you linking to the discussions about the new template, will confess I am not willing to read the multiple pages of discussion. There is just too much going on there… Perhaps you can TLDR it for? Is this designed to function as a second template or is designed to completely replace {{Infobox election}}? If it is a replacement, then once you are done with your work, the code at {{Infobox election}} should be replaced with your new code. To be clear, I have absolutely zero objection to redoing the template in the name of a better use experience and applaud your efforts in this!

However, IF it is a replacement, then I think it should be coded in the sandbox. If this is going to be a lengthy process and you want to leave that sandbox for other uses, then I would encourage you to make a Template:Infobox election/new version.

Finally, I’m pretty experienced with Template editing so if I can be of any assistance along the way, feel free to {{ping|Zackmann08}} me. Zackmann (^{Talk to me}/_{What I been doing}) 18:20, 1 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Zackmann08 and thanks for the response

The template is kind of designed as a bridge between the horizontal/vertical mix of {{Infobox election}} and the entirely vertical table style of {{Infobox legislative election}}.

The TLDR of the linked discussions is that people generally agreed that a new style of infobox was warranted, preferably based on the types seen at French and Spanish wikipedias, which have seperate sections for each party (as with TIE) but which are not ordered to go across then down and go only down (as with TILE). As such, this could technically/theoretically replace TIE though I doubt it would, so most likely it would remain as a second template.
