Standards for classification type in organization #105

Closed kaerumy closed 9 years ago

kaerumy commented 9 years ago

It would be good to have some reference vocabulary for this, so that we can extract organizations by type:

eg.

Example queries:

Person has been a part of A, B & C parliamentary/senate oversight committees. Person is currently a director in A, B, C companies (board of directors)

For reuse, I'm hoping that parliamentary/senate oversight committee might use some internationally common naming convention.

Duplicate #91 Agreed it's important!
