I am thinking of ways to bootstrap https://www.cyanpages.info The Local Politician and Bureaucrat Directory in a way I can maintain it myself because I couldn't get any community organizers to give me the time of day when I asked them what they wanted to see in a directory. I am just going to move on without them.
I can do it manually, but there is so much data to input, I won't be able to afford to throw all of the time it needs to keep it up to date by myself that way. What would make sense would be to make a structured wiki that would automatically pull from the government websites and the government statistics websites using external data, cargo, and page forms, but that is too much for me to comprehend where to start. Right now I what I think I can do right now is create a Google Custom Search Engine and index all of the websites that I think I need to index in one search to start and then maybe I will learn just enough to ingest some data into the wiki in an automated way. Is there anything else I can do that I didn't think of? _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list To unsubscribe, go to: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
