Historic MPs edit

Hi - and welcome to Wikidata!

I've just noticed your edits on historic MPs over the last couple of days. I've been hammering away at the History of Parliament for a couple of years now as part of a longer project tied into data on MPs (Wikidata:WikiProject British Politicians) and so I was really delighted to see these pop up. Including educated-at information is really helpful - I've been poking away at importing this automatically from the History of Parliament summaries but still haven't quite got there, and I know this is something people do find quite interesting.

In case it helps at all, there's an automated list here which gives all the History of Parliament entries not yet on Wikidata - we currently have just over two thirds of them, covering everyone from 1715-1832, about 75% of 1660-1715, and more patchily for older Parliaments.

Thanks again for this, and if there's any help I can give you, please do let me know! Andrew Gray (talk) 11:57, 15 September 2017 (UTC)Reply
