Talk:Electoral constituencies of Samoa

Need to get information as to what villages make up each constituency. Also does anyone have or can anyone create a map that shows these electoral constituencies?

I intend to link each electoral constituency to its own page once I can track down information about current an previous incumbents to each constituency. (Nimbus 15:04, 30 January 2006 (UTC))

Look at the third external link that I added today.--Ratzer 14:28, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

Sorry I tried tiding it up and I think I sort of messed thing up. (Nimbus 18:45, 31 January 2006 (UTC))

Notes on changes

I'm unsure of the accuracy of the numbering of the list of political districts. It seems to use the numbering of the map linked to the article, which uses different numbering to the Territorial Constituencies Act 1963. See differences:

No.	Current article	Terr. Const. Act 1963
1	Vaimauga East	Vaimauga East
2	Vaimauga West (2 seats)	Vaimauga West
3	Faleata East	Faleata East
4	Faleata West	Faleata West
5	Sagaga-Le-Falefa	Sagaga-Le-Falefa
6	Sagaga-Le-Usoga	Sagaga-Le-Usoga
7	Safata (2 seats)	A'ana North No. 1
8	Siumu	A'ana North No. 2
9	Aana Alofi No. 1 (2 seats)	A'ana North No. 3
10	Aana Alofi No. 2	Aiga-I-Le-Tai
11	Aana Alofi No. 3	Falelatai and Samatau
12	Falelatai & Samatau	Lefaga and Faleseela
13	Lefaga & Faleseela	Safata
14	Aiga-I-Le-tai	Si'umu
15	Falealili (2 seats)	Falealili
16	Lotofaga	Lotofaga

18	Aleipata Itupa-I-Lalo	Aleipata Itupa-I-Lalo
19	Aleipata-Itupa-Iluga	Aleipata Itupa-I-luga
20	Anoamaa East	Va'a-O-Fonoti
21	Anoamaa West	Anoama'a East
22	Vaa-O-Fonoti	Anoama'a West

36	Gagaemauga No. 3	Alataua West
37	Gagaifomauga No. 1	Salega
38	Gagaifomauga No. 2	Palauli West
39	Gagaifomauga No. 3	Satupa'itea
40	Vaisigano No.1	Palauli
41	Vaisigano No. 2	Palauli-Le-Falefa
42	Falealupo
43	Alataua West
44	Salega (2 seats)
45	Palauli West
46	Palauli-Le-Falefa
47	Satupaitea
48	Palauli (East)

Also given that the parliament source is a deadlink, I'm updating the article to go with the legislation, which contains "CONSTITUENCY No. .. ..." before each heading. Please edit accordingly if you find a better source. --Michael Billington (talk) 23:48, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

The map the old data was based on is a scan from Samoa: mapping the diversity By R. Gerard Ward, Paul Ashcroft, based on '48 districts' enumerated in 1991 census (there are 41). While it is useful to view, it's no longer correct and is probably online in violation of copyright. I'm taking out the link and replacing it with a citation of the source. --Michael Billington (talk) 02:17, 15 April 2011 (UTC)
