Hello @Kj cheetham, I recently changed these articles from list-class to disambiguation-class due to the article being a disambiguation article of multiple different elections in New Brunswick. Looking at the Category:List-Class Elections and Referendums articles category, the only elections in this format are for New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, both of which previously used disambiguation-class for years until they were randomly changed by Renamed user g5s6n3yi8z7g08cs. I'd understand more if this article were about one election (though NB/NS election articles aren't usually in election format) but this page serves to disambiguate two different "1st" New Brunswick elections. To my understanding, would that not be considered disambiguation-class? Otherwise, it clogs up the list-class New Brunswick articles quite a bit. B3251 (talk) 15:24, 28 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Hi B3251, thank you for your message. My understanding was that because these were branded as WP:SETINDEX articles, they counted as lists and not disambiguation-class. Whether or not they should be SIA is another question, which I've not given thought to and taken it on good faith that whoever marked them as SIA originally was correct. -Kj cheetham (talk) 15:32, 28 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
