double-check members' emails from official site #210

Closed davidmooreppf closed 7 years ago

davidmooreppf commented 7 years ago

I'll do this, piece of cake, just making a note. Some member emails aren't currently correct.

@reginafcompton what format is easiest to get a simple spreadsheet of all 51 members?

One column of: person/rosie-mendez-6aaf05a98863/

Second column of: email address?

Let me know what URL structure you'd like, e.g. the full URL.

reginafcompton commented 7 years ago

@davidmooreppf So...do you need us to make changes on the backend, and you'll be giving us a spreadsheet? (If so, the two columns you propose sounds good.)

Or do you want to make these changes using the Django admin view?

davidmooreppf commented 7 years ago

Yeah I had been wondering if there was a way for me to do it manually, but didn't see those emails in GitHub. So in Django /admin view, where to find them? Chat me anytime.

Okay....actually, this is something that needs to be changed on http://legistar.council.nyc.gov/.

davidmooreppf commented 7 years ago

Makes sense, as I didn't see our static pages for council member info.

I'll work w/ council to fix it on Legistar.

Before I close, is there no way we can do it on our end, if I made that spreadsheet? That's totally understandable, just triple checking. Not worth making it a big project.

reginafcompton commented 7 years ago

Unfortunately, no. We get that information from Legistar, so any updates will make in our database today would just be overwritten tomorrow, when we run our daily import data script.

reginafcompton commented 7 years ago

Ooopppss. I did not mean to close this.

reginafcompton commented 7 years ago

Let's keep the issue open, until you get things squared away with Legistar.

davidmooreppf commented 7 years ago

Cool I'll see how Council wants to fix it on Legistar member pages.

reginafcompton commented 7 years ago

@davidmooreppf Did you get in touch with Council? do we still have email address problems? (In any case, whenever Legistar adds correct contact info, our scraper will grab it....so, closing this issue.)
