Disambiguation link notification for March 10

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 1999 Salvadoran presidential election, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Francisco Flores. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Inserting incorrect numbers and percentages

Hello. I noticed that you added incorrect electorate and turnout figures to several Salvadoran election articles, such as here (you added the electorate as 3,171,224 and turnout as 39.83%, but the actual figures (from the results tables) are 3,170,414 and 38.58%. In some other articles with two round elections, it looks like you averaged the turnout of the two rounds? I have corrected all these articles, but would you mind explaining why you added these figures? Cheers, Number 57 18:02, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

The numbers are from the source stated in the results table; in some cases it is the Nohlen book, in other cases it is the TSE (for example, this TSE source gives the 2004 turnout as 67.34%, but you added the figure 67.30%). Number 57 20:57, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

Secondary sources are generally preferred to primary ones. There is a chance the Nohlen book has corrected errors in the TSE figures (I've seen many mistakes made in official results publications over the years). Number 57 21:47, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

And what about the 2004 figures that you added, which didn't match the TSE data? Number 57 21:52, 10 March 2022 (UTC)
