To do next edit

  • Go through list of remaining unmatched GSSs, & compare with Commons
  • Extract unit IDs from VoB
  • Extract list of wards from categories & tag with P31
  • Match live wards, constituencies, euro-constituencies etc to GSS, TOID
    • Northern Ireland house of Commons constituencies
  • Refine settlement P131s to districts
  • Look at village/town/hamlet etc status of settlements

Civil parishes edit

  • GSS count: tinyurl.com/y8s2nf2y 10464 / 10459 (some may need to be retired)
    • list: tinyurl.com/y7ocp4jk
  • Items marked as CPs, with no GSS code. (To investigate). tinyurl.com/yawlakzx (520)
  • Villages with "civil parish" in desc: tinyurl.com/yaec6f7f -- to fix
  • Non-unique codes / links:
    • tinyurl.com/mw3e4pb GSS values claimed by more than one item. (Currently: 65).
    • tinyurl.com/mfdlwjl Commons categories for CPs claimed by more than one item. (Currently: 102).
    • tinyurl.com/kkuz36e CPs that are in areas that are also claimed as CPs. (Currently: 57).
    • tinyurl.com/y8f2s9mr A query that tries to combine the above. (Currently: 128)
  • Better labels, alts, descriptions for CPs -- current descs tinyurl.com/l5f5asr, alts tinyurl.com/kt2unof

    • cf Bot request: Remove commas from places -- but need good descriptions first
    • tinyurl.com/jwzh7ms CPs with a GSS needing a better district (16).
    • failed to remove "(parish)" and "(civil parish)" in alts
    • check settlement type vs commons, os ?
  • Download names+coords for CPs -- try to update GSS, TOIDs, KEPNs, etc
  • Update P131s again if necessary
  • Cheshire: map old->new CPs.
  • CPs with no Commonscats: tinyurl.com/y9ksoah3 (263)

  • (1) Attempt to match on geonames: tinyurl.com/yaqxu2jo
    Done, but need to go back and add alts
  • (2) Use geonames to infer county; attempt to match on name+county. -- mark duplicate pages first; may still find non-parish matches to pre-empt merges
  • (3) Try to match parishes, districts by name without county. -- as above, mark duplicate pages first.
  • First attempt to match (but only 15 hits!) tinyurl.com/ydeq6ghj

Historical buildings edit

  • Much better adms needed -- re-extract for parishes
    Current adm classes: tinyurl.com/y8az996j
    perhaps extract from www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk ?
  • Also add street addresses; try to identify nature of buildings

Identifiers edit

GSS code (2011) (P836) edit

  • All UK? - tinyurl.com/mkk4kqv - YES.
  • item/gss/cerem: tinyurl.com/m464a4t
  • Deprecated GSS values that haven't been tinyurl.com/llsk7pl (699).

  • renamed parishes (from GSS): tinyurl.com/n2nbehl
  • Cheshire West decision document [1]

GeoNames ID (P1566) edit

  • to do: check classes vs. geonames feature codes
  • Multiple values - tinyurl.com/mo5m4dl (80): needs investigation
  • UK items with Geonames -- tinyurl.com/l5ljbdl

TOID (P3120) edit

  • Documentation could use constraint reports, incl special one for multiple values.
  • Multiple values: tinyurl.com/kea2jlp -- mostly close together ?
  • Non-unique values: tinyurl.com/muudoss (95)
  • All UK? - tinyurl.com/lvl82tv - YES.
  • See Abersychan (Q3304459) for some clean-up issues (eg "use" qualifier; coords from TOID).
    • Lookup TOID from GSS: tinyurl.com/y9w3fsg8

Vision of Britain place ID (P3616) edit

  • All UK -- tinyurl.com/kb6ujvq -- 144 (but includes Ireland and Estonia)
  • Map -- tinyurl.com/kmel5xt

OpenDomesday settlement ID (P3118) edit

Commons category (P373) edit

  • CPs with a non-unique P373: tinyurl.com/mleexsc
    • multiple values: tinyurl.com/lo65uz7

?use for settlements, and to extract CPs

  • Check all P373s now point to valid commonscats in the CP hierarchy (query: tinyurl.com/k24bj6h)
    • they don't -- lots of cats on Commons not identified as CPs.
    • however: also some cats on Commons not on the list <-- missing CPs ?
    • dangerous to bulk tag CP cats on Commons until these are checked.


Heritage status edit

  • Better localisation to parishes
  • Systematic chasing of Commons links

more? edit

  • GENUKI
  • BBC Domesday reloaded
    • problem is to identify blocks that were actually done; alternatively, go fishing for settlements
    • try sv-wiki? <-- No, only 2; en has 474, though some by search: [2] -- cf template -- topic search may be the better way to access it.
