As 11 may is the deadline for the delivery of candidate nomination papers, it would make sense to have any event after this.
As it happens I have organised an event at Newspeak House to do this the following day, if anyone's keen:
Crowdsourcing Election Candidates Party, 12th May 2017 https://democracyclub.org.uk/blog/2017/04/07/four-weeks-and-3165-pdfs-go/ Democracy Club https://www.nwspk.com/democracyclub.org.uk
On the 11th of May, each councils will release a document called a Statements of Persons Nominated, which details the candidates for the upcoming election. We need to manually enter this information into a database so that more useful things can be done with it. Come and help! https://www.nwspk.com/events?id=144#event-144

I think we should do one before. I suggested Sunday 7th May, and Ed has said we can use Newspeak House. So we need a trainer now. Anyone keen?

What about if we simply did a politics themed editathon after the election when the results had come in and we had something to work with?
With NPOV of course!
