Put party as organisation on popit candidacy memberships? #78

tfgg · 2014-11-30T14:03:35Z

Currently candidacy memberships don't have a party associated with them and you instead have to iterate through other memberships and match them by the timespan. I was discussing with @mhl whether it made sense in the Popolo format for the organization on the candidacy membership to be set to the party.

A discussion started recently about this on the Poplus list (unfortunately it's threaded under "Introductions" despite the change in subject). The main issue is this one: popolo-project/popolo-spec#90

The emerging consensus is to use Membership's onBehalfOf property to refer to the party.

I'm closing this as it's superseded by #502 - we'll do this migration to using on_behalf_of after the PopIt -> django-popolo migration.

Because SOPNs often have the name in LAST first form people sometimes add candidates like this so include some guidance in the label that we prefer First Last. Fixes #78

Add text to the name label in the add candidate field that we would like the name to be in First Last form and not LAST First as it often appears in official documents. For #78
