Hi @jpmckinney, whenever you can, do review, we'd like to add a few countries we are looking at. |

I left a few comments. I'm assuming the total constituencies matches the official source.
@jloutsenhizer For additional review.

Are the alternative spellings necessary? We typically only create "sameAs" entries when renaming an OCD-ID – not when creating it.

Got you, thank you for that, so something that may need more clarification would be how to capture
instances where a region has multiple versions of the name eg Mekelle / Mekele / Mek'ele

I think in this project we just adopt one name. There are many projects, like GeoNames, which track alternative names, but that is not the goal of this project.

Alright, this will be cleaned up and updated.

Is there a more specific page to link to for the source of the constituencies? The website is down currently so browsing through archive.org is slow, but I'm having trouble finding the correct page.

It looks like there's too many constituencies. I count 652 in this file, but my understanding is that there's only 547 seats: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_of_Peoples%27_Representatives
