Talk:2026 South Sudanese general election

Date

Since the tumultuous events several months ago, it is unlikely the election will take place on time. There has been no affirmation whatsoever that it will be held. Conversely, and in light of there being no constitution in place in regards to the constitutional convention and its mandate, here is a source indicating that the election is unlikely to take place. Please find a source affirming this before edit warring.Lihaas (talk) 17:32, 15 June 2014 (UTC)

It being "unlikely" is a WP:CRYSTAL claim. Until the government or electoral commission has announced that it will not take place in 2015, we have to assume that it is going to happen as scheduled. Rumours are not reliable sources. You are also wrong about there being no constitution in place. There is a transitional constitution (it's even mentioned in the article). As this move is controversial, please start at WP:RM rather than move war over the title. Thanks, Number 57 17:43, 15 June 2014 (UTC)

And you have ZERO counter claims. I have a source. You ar e not god, you do not determine WP but sources do. We don't assume nothing because THAT is Crystal.Lihaas (talk) 01:25, 16 June 2014 (UTC)

The fact that the election is scheduled for 2015 according to the transitional constitution is already in the article and referenced, as you should have seen if you've read it. I never claimed I was god - all I'm trying to point out to you is that the son of a rival politician claiming that the election will not happen as scheduled in an interview is not a statement of fact,because that person has no power to decide otherwise. The election is scheduled for 2015 until the government announces otherwise - they are the ones that get to decide the date. Number 57 09:47, 16 June 2014 (UTC)
