Here are my suggestions on where we can flag potential issues and follow up to improve our data quality:
Invalid NGO Websites:
By doing so, we have the option of examing the NGO directly, rather than relying on NGO monitoring websites. Please note that I have utilized the python validators package (https://validators.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) to validate the URL's format.
Expired FCRA of NGOs:
Important to ensure we have the most up-to-date information and compliance status.
Non-functional Email Addresses and Phone Numbers:
We can also flag email addresses and phone numbers that are no longer functional or fail to establish contact with the respective NGOs.
Sparse Data for NGOs:
Agreed, it would be helpful to note down NGOs with limited data. Hence, we can focus on gathering additional information to make their profiles more comprehensive.
Text that is not in English (i.e. Mission statement)
Best to understand what is being said.
Instead of a generic flagging system, I propose utilizing a tag system to categorize these errors, allowing for more precise identification and tracking.
