Gabriel did all the work on global-priorities-institute-oxford-university.sql, with much less feedback from my part this time. After using ./reload-db.sh I, I found one single error. I created the org corresponding row on organizations.sql, and updated the sql_files file. Gabriel reported 11 hours on this task.

Gabriel: "Hello! This organization was much more challenging for me due to the time jumps with little information on Wayback, which forced me to search extensively for data on some members, as many of them are not on LinkedIn.

One thing that helped me a lot was that some members had uploaded "PDFs" or "Dropbox" files with their CVs, from which I could extract valuable information. Regarding that, I tried to save the links to their CVs in the "Wayback Machine," but it took too long and eventually gave me an error. However, I noticed that in the reference links, when clicking on the users, the CVs could be viewed properly. From there, I was able to determine the months of entry and, in some cases, even the end dates in the organization.

There were cases, exactly two, where I only included a link because they appeared only once and then were no longer available due to those "time jumps" on "Wayback."

I probably took too long with some members; I promise to improve on that."
