I see there's a source for it, but with all due respect I don't think 'Sum Navarre' is a very good translation of the Spanish name. It sounds nonsensical, while 'Navarra Suma' is actually a gramatically complete sentence with a subject and predicate, plus some mild wordplay involved: it's a reference to the three parties joining forces, sumando, but it directly involves the region itself and the positive connotations of the verb sumar: to add up, to bring something to the table. Something like Navarre Adds Up would be a more accurate and meaningful translation. And there's actually evidence of previous use by a source of authority, the Spanish national news agency EFE[1] -- 79.156.147.108 (talk) 01:14, 6 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

According to the Junta Electoral Central the coalition is comprised of UPN and Cs (50%-50% in money).[1]. Granted it is a primary source, but it is rather authoritative.--Asqueladd (talk) 16:08, 1 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Should I understand then that Navarra Suma is a coalition between UPNd and Cs with incrustated PP candidates?--Asqueladd (talk) 16:13, 1 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
Yes, it is explained (and sourced) in the article: The agreement was formally presented as a UPN–Cs alliance, with UPN integrating some PP members within its reserved posts in the alliance's lists as a result of a previous agreement between the two parties. In fact, the main list is made up of 2 UPN members, 2 PP members and only 1 Cs member. Impru20talk 16:14, 1 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
