[edit]

Please explain the difference between:

legislative session (Q1812889), period in which a legislature is convened and
legislative term (Q15238777), period in which a legislature is convened

In German both item have the label "Legislaturperiode". --Kolja21 (talk) 05:55, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

In English, as far as I understand it, a "term" is the entire period between elections, and a "session" is a more technical period when the body convenes between recess periods. In other words, each term consists of several sessions. SPQRobin (talk) 22:39, 11 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@Kolja21, SPQRobin: In Italy legislative term (Q15238777) is the whole period in which the Parliament is officially constituted (i.e. the period that goes from the first reunion to the day before the first reunion of the new Parliament), while legislative session (Q1812889) is a part of such period (i.e. a work session followed by a break followed by another session). --Sannita - not just another it.wiki sysop 14:23, 15 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

To which legislature?

[edit]

How should the Term be linked with the Legislature(s) it relates to?

Most of the examples I've looked at either aren't linked at all (other than being guessable from the label) or only have a jurisdiction/country set, which isn't enough to differentiate between multiple legislatures in the same jurisdiction. Or, from the other end: for a given legislature, how should you be able to get a list of all its Terms? --Oravrattas (talk) 08:44, 17 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
