AEC non-obvious independence edit
I've added (and now restored) the word "independent" to the text, for all non-Australian English-speaking readers not familiar with the details of Australian politics. I discussed the original addition here at the AFD and was not opposed. It's not just an "American style proviso". If there's consensus against the word, then fine. I'd prefer not to get into any sort of revert war, so I'm discussing again (here now), per BRD, although the deleter should have simply continued the discussion at the AFD. --Lexein (talk) 14:21, 31 October 2013 (UTC)
- Anyone can involve themselves in any article, but we've successfully been able to do these articles/pendulums federally and state over many elections for a long long time without any help from US editors unfamiliar with Australian politics.

- On the other hand, this article is for everyone, not just Australians. If non-Australian editors can assist with making the article easier to understand for an international audience, it should be welcomed. --Surturz (talk) 23:33, 31 October 2013 (UTC)
