This is relevant to this election because it shows where a non-party candidate takes stands. I am tempted to put this back, but will discuss here first. [[User:Benjwong|Benjwong]] ([[User talk:Benjwong|talk]]) 02:59, 8 March 2012 (UTC)

Collaboration needed

Improvement needed

Cleanup needed

Image needed (347)

Destub needed

Deorphan needed

Page creation needed

Miscellaneous tasks

Return permit

Democratic party members not being given home entry permits. A couple of questions - I'm not sure if all democratic party members are not allowed the permits, or only some. Also,I don't think there is an official reason why those like Ho are not given a permit (even though everyone knows why). And, as Ho is not going to win, the fact that he cannot go to Mainland China is not really relevant. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.177.38.242 (talkcontribs)

You count the number of times Donald Tsang has had to enter the mainland for paperwork, signings, visits etc. Many many times. It is not possible to be chief exec, while limited to just the SAR territories. Benjwong (talk) 03:25, 12 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Recently deleted content

So editor Ohconfucius and HKfuture has deleted the following content multiple times regarding candidate Yu Wing-yin.

"He is known for supporting the crackdown actions of the Communist government during the 1989 Tiananmen Square Protests, and said it was too bad they didn't have water cannons and plastic bullets."[1]

This is relevant to this election because it shows where a non-party candidate takes stands. I am tempted to put this back, but will discuss here first. Benjwong (talk) 02:59, 8 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • It's not just me and Hkfuture (talk · contribs) who see it as a coatrack. It was previously removed by RTBED (talk · contribs). Having said that, the two preceding named editors may be socks, but that's another matter.

    Yu Wing-yin is not even a candidate, but somebody who announced that he was seeking nominations. He has such a cameo role in this play, and zero support from EC members, that I would have few hesitations in removing everything except his name as a passing mention. So far, I have refrained. We don't talk about any of the candidates stances or policy issues here in the article (maybe we should); in the absence, I feel that talking about his stance on June 4 is over the top to the extreme. --Ohconfucius ¡digame! 03:35, 8 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
