Please properly use the "source" field edit
Hi Ralbegen, |
Who did the poll? (author) URL to the published data (source). Thank you.Senator2029 07:23, 11 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Senator2029: Thank for getting in touch! The data are opinion polls conducted by a lot of companies, as collated on the English Wikipedia page Opinion polling for the next United Kingdom general election. Previous graphs used on the page have used "own work" as the source without controversy, so I'm afraid I wasn't aware there was any other expectation. I'd be happy to update the source field, but could you advise me on how best to reflect the use of English Wikipedia as a source? I keep the graph up-to-date with data on there and I've shared the code there so that others can do so if I stop. I would also prefer not to update the source field with a new specific revision link to the page whenever I update the graph, which can be several times a week, if at all possible.

People Polling 28/12 edit
Hi Ralbegen,
Regarding your UK LOESS graph, I wanted to suggest that the People Polling outlier poll conducted on the 28th December is removed for the time being.
The LOESS obviously is struggling to weight it properly because of the 6 day separation. Because of this, I'm sure you're aware how much of an inaccurate picture this paints, and I've personally seen several social media posts misinterpreting the situation.
Once 1 or 2 more post-christmas polls are released, I'm sure it will fix itself but I think it might be best to remove it until those are released
Thanks, Quinnnnnby (talk) 18:18, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
Thank you edit
Seriously, the work you do updating the poll graph for the next UK general election is amazing. Gopchunk (talk) 22:19, 3 April 2023 (UTC)

A barnstar for you! edit
The Graphic Designer's Barnstar | |
Thank you for your work with File:Opinion polling for the next United Kingdom general election after 2019 (LOESS).svg! I was looking at en:Opinion polling for the next United Kingdom general election and realized that the graph was working, in sharp contrast to, well, every other graph across Wikimedia. It is noticed and appreciated! Best, HouseBlaster (talk) 03:29, 6 July 2023 (UTC) |

Possible help on some graphs? edit
Hey, resident political nerd here, I was wondering if you needed / wanted some help updating or helping to manage some of the graphs you upload :D I've been pretty fascinated with politics (and stats / graphs) for a little while so I'd love to help if you wanted any!
