[[Single winner system]] redirects here, but that also applies to mayors and governors and presidents who are not part of a body with multiple members — [[User:Psephomancy|Psephomancy]] ([[User talk:Psephomancy|talk]]) 16:11, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
: Any idea why it's called "single-member district" over on Wikipedia (and why it hasn't changed over there)? Is there a unique perspective that the Electowiki community brings to naming articles like this one? -- [[User:RobLa|RobLa]] ([[User talk:RobLa|talk]]) 21:07, 27 February 2020 (UTC)
:: There's nothing wrong with "single-member district" on either site. I'm just saying that there are many single-winner voting methods, and that they aren't only used to elect legislatures, so [[single winner system]] shouldn't redirect here. I'm not sure if [[Single-member district]] should be moved to [[single-winner voting method]] and broadened, or if part of it should be split out into a separate article, or what. — [[User:Psephomancy|Psephomancy]] ([[User talk:Psephomancy|talk]]) 00:38, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
:: In other words, Wikipedia's article specifically says "that returns one officeholder '''to a body with multiple members''' such as a legislature." — [[User:Psephomancy|Psephomancy]] ([[User talk:Psephomancy|talk]]) 05:01, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
