Support function and parlamentarian surname, Nationalrat XY #6
Comments
Good idea! We could edit it in the German version, something such as: I just need a good surname list either with Lobbywatch API or with the Parliament Webservice. In German, you always write “Nationalrat de Courten” / “Nationalrat de Buman”, right? And not “Nationalrat Courten”? Best |
I would say yes, Nationalrat de Courten since de Courten is the name.
Good idea Maybe it is better to split this issue. These surnames is an idea of me. We have to check if these surnames are really used in newspapers. I'll ask the others in Slack. |
Another case could be only party or official functions without any name. For a given time, FDP-Präsidentin oder SP-Fraktionspräsident are sufficient to identify the correct persons. Now, But the time of the publication has to be taken into account. Page meta data such as creation date could be sufficient. |
GLP-Parteipräsident Grossen is not recognized, only standard full name "Jürg Grossen".

I suggest to define and support name patterns
[function] [surname]
[party]-[function] [surname]
E.g.
Nationalrat Grossen
Nationalrätin [surname]
[Party]-Parteipräsident [surname]
Ständerat Berberat
Some patterns may depend on newspaper style. E.g. boulevard news papers as blick.ch may use more informal patterns or even nicknames.
It could also be an option to extend the lobbywatch datamodel with nicknames.
This is a nice to have enhancement for future versions.
