Personal Notes
Great work putting the party list here! I was too lazy to memorize these and was reluctant to do it. Since I already transferred the article, we should do this work in the main namespace...
Also, we only need the party/state marking the first time the name is used.
- PT = Workers' Party (Brazil)
- PMDB = Party of the Brazilian Democratic Movement
- PL = Liberal Party (Brazil)
- PSDB = Brazilian Social Democracy Party
- PTB = Brazilian Labour Party
- PP = Progressive Party (Brazil)
- PSOL = Socialism and Freedom Party
- AL = Alagoas
- AM = Amazonas
- BA = Bahia
- CE = Ceará
- GO = Goiás
- MG = Minas Gerais
- MT = Mato Grosso
- MS = Mato Grosso do Sul
- PE = Pernambuco
- PR = Paraná
- RO = Rondônia
- RJ = Rio de Janeiro (state)
- RS = Rio Grande do Sul
- SP = São Paulo (state)
Questions
Which form do you prefer?
- Vanderval Santos (PL-SP)
- Vanderval Santos (Liberal Party)
- Vanderval Santos (Liberal Party - SP)
- Vanderval Santos (Liberal Party - São Paulo) * this one is probably best -- what about no spaces though?
- Vanderval Santos
- Vanderval Santos (Liberal Party-São Paulo)
Which form do you prefer?
- Workers' Party (PT) * maybe use the first time it is mentioned
- Workers Party (PT)
- Workers' Party * because it is used elsewhere on Wikipedia -- I prefer Workers Party personally, but we should be consistent
- Workers Party
- PT
Notes
- Instead of "Vote-for-Cash CPI" I suggest using "Vote Buying CPI" because this last one is more widely known (see Google).
Good... I still think we should consider changing the article title as well. I'm not sure to what. Perhaps even the Scandal of the Mensalao.
We also might consider putting the timeline in a separate page at some point... Don't know.
