Original research?

I see that User:Nbpolitico has done the most work on this page, and I wonder if his is the same nbpolitico that told me on Twitter that he did the redistribution himself and they're "not in the public domain". I see that much of this article is unsourced, so it would be nice if there were references. Even if it is to his own data (I'm not that much of a stickler for Original Research anyways). -- Earl Andrew - talk 20:57, 28 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

No original research here, it is all in the public domain. Poll-by-poll transposition of results is work I have done that is not on the public domain, and not on Wikipedia. Everything in the article is drawn from the three reports of the boundaries commission which were linked in the "Sources" section. I see some of those links are now broken as the Commission has taken its website down. I'll relink to the permananent home for the documents on Elections New Brunswick's website. It would be tedious to repeat the same 2-3 sources over and over within the body of the article. I will add footnotes to headers of tables instead. - Nbpolitico (talk) 00:10, 29 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

That would be great. I was trying to find these transposition numbers in those links to no avail. -- Earl Andrew - talk 05:03, 29 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
