Big thanks to both Eds, John and to everyone involved in the election night
editathon. I suspect it was a more eventful night than many of us had
anticipated!
Cheers
Lucy

Thanks for the reminder. I have a hazy recollection of Ed Saperia asking
me before I left on Friday morning if I could create such a list. Here are
the articles that we started on the night at the editathon:

election,_June_2017#Articles_actually_created
I've only added those started by editors physically at Newspeak House, and
there may well be some I've overlooked, so please add more if need be.
The category is "UK MPs 2017– stubs":
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:UK_MPs_2017%E2%80%93_stubs
Altogether, it looks like there were 131 new MPs elected.

Edward H, can you possibly provide a summary of
what was updated? Can we
see all the new MPs pages in a category somewhere?
