Orphaned references in Elections in Wales

[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Elections in Wales's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "auto":

  • From Liberal Democrats (UK): "Registered supporters 2019". Liberal Democrats. Archived from the original on 21 September 2019. Retrieved 6 September 2019.
  • From Newport, Wales: 2011 Census (Table KS201EW), Office for National Statistics (ONS)

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 04:06, 26 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@BitterGiant I believe that this reference for the 1992 election was created during your late July edit. do you remember what it was? Contrawwftw (talk) 06:06, 10 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Contrawwftw Hi, sorry, would have replied sooner but had to dig a bit into the edit logs to remember what it was I did; I'll be honest I just cut/paste the 1983/1987/1992/1997 boxes from their main articles into this one, so I think the orphaned link was just an artefact from the 1992 article where I didn't quite check it as thoroughly as I would have otherwise. Mea culpa; have inserted the correct citation. BitterGiant (talk) 12:21, 10 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
