Rename to "2027 Salvadoran general election"

Latest comment: 14 days ago4 comments3 people in discussion

Given that legislative elections will be held at the same time, wouldn't it be more fitting to rename the page from "presidential election" to "general election"? Szekere07 (talk) 11:34, 2 August 2025 (UTC)Reply

IMO it would be best to have a single article until it becomes large enough to need splitting. Number 5 7 15:06, 2 August 2025 (UTC)Reply

@Szekere07: Why did you just move the page without a discussion? You lost a whole ton of information that was on the legislative election page. Keep the pages separate, they'll blow out of control like the 2024 pages. PizzaKing13 (¡Hablame!) 🍕👑 14:23, 22 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

@PizzaKing13 I asked to merge the two pages in a single one a year ago, and given there has been no opposition I implemented it. Maybe get involved in the discussion

Just because in the general election page there isnt additional info that can be found in the legislative page it doesnt mean the change has to be reverted Szekere07 (talk) 15:22, 22 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
