★★?

@Jklamo: are you sure this should be ★★? There are 751 seats, but the list of members of the 8th Parliament only has 649 members without an end-date, and the list of current members has 767. It would be good if both of those pages were correct, but for ★★ we should really have at least one of them be right. Or do you know some other query that will give us the correct list? --Oravrattas (talk) 14:56, 5 September 2018 (UTC)

You are right, it was a bit premature. Reverted back to ★.--Jklamo (talk) 01:34, 6 September 2018 (UTC)

Let's see if we can actually get it back to ★★ :) It looks like one issue is that a lot of people have multiple memberships on single P39 statements, which is confusing some of the queries. See, for example Q1399098#P39. @A ka es: it looks like you've been bitten by the bug in QuickStatements that doesn't allow the addition of multiple statements with the same target. Perhaps we should roll back that batch and add all the statements with PositionStatements_Bot instead? --Oravrattas (talk) 06:20, 6 September 2018 (UTC)

I've also added a prompt to compare the Wikidata list with the one from Liste des députés européens de la 8e législature. It's not completely up-to-date either, but it's been useful to discover a few problems already — User:Oravrattas/prompts/8th_European_Parliament --Oravrattas (talk) 07:30, 6 September 2018 (UTC)

I will check the items next days - I am very busy at the moment. 767 is right. I have to check the start-dates and the end-dates. Andrea - a_ka_es (talk) 12:05, 6 September 2018 (UTC)
