How to label autocracies?[edit]

Universal suffrage in an autocracy or hybrid regime is completely different than in a democracy. Feels incomplete to not acknowledge when suffrage is not genuine. Superb Owl (talk) 21:02, 18 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"Milestones" table is problematic[edit]

The section makes clear that "States have granted and revoked universal suffrage at various times.", which is true. But in this context, what good is it to list the most recent "milestone", if rights have been revoked since? For example, 2004 is listed as a milestone year for Afghanistan, but "All political parties have been banned since August 2023." Boers1 (talk) 13:51, 2 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
