disambiguation style (why 1939, and should we even be that precise in any case?)

Do we have a citation for 1939 (rather than, say, 1936?). Actually, do we have a citation for 1850?

I'm a bit uncomfortable with disambiguation for political parties by specifying exact years, which may be hard to research or sometimes even hard to define. Eg, was the Union Nationale formed when it became an electoral alliance or when it became a true political party. And the exact year of death for parties that linger long after they have become moribund can be tricky, especially if the party splinters into factions each claiming to be the true successor. It would be preferable perhaps to specify only a decade, or a vaguer nomenclature like "(historical)". -- P.T. Aufrette (talk) 19:47, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I've followed the example of the Conservative Party of Canada (historical) and renamed the article. Vale of Glamorgan (talk) 20:01, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move

– For the same reason Conservative Party of Canada (historical) was moved to Conservative Party of Canada (1867–1942), historical and modern are inaccurate descriptors, and the years should be used. 117Avenue (talk) 02:16, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
