| Lots of the MP pages seem to have Hansard record listed under 'external links'. For example ]. Is there any standard for putting a link to Hansard in an infobox, and if not can I suggest that it is adopted as a standard? I don't know what the process is for doing that here. ] (]) 07:01, 6 August 2012 (UTC) | |||
| :I have added Hansard links to thousands of MP articles, and it would be great to have them all linked. | |||
| :There are two sources for Hansard: | |||
| :#Current and recent Hansards (since 1988 for the Commons) are on the Parliament website at http://www.parliament.uk/business/publications/hansard/ | |||
| :#Hansard from 1803 to 2005 are http://hansard.millbanksystems.com/. This is an experimental site which uses data from the Hansard Digitisation project; it has the advantage of covering a huge period, but the disadvantage of having imperfect indexing. | |||
| :So, the question of which to use depends on the period when the MP served. For anyone in Parliament pre-1988, there should be a link to the millbanksystems site, because that's the only on-line record of that period. For anyone in Parliament before 2005, I suggest that those links should be added anyway. | |||
| :I would like to recommend adding a link to the Parliament site for MPs since 1988, but Parliament website doesn't seem to have done a good job of indexing. At http://www.parliament.uk/business/publications/hansard/commons/by-mp/, they seem to have separate indexes for each session, and no combined index. | |||
| :There are two templates for adding the Millbanksystems links: | |||
| :#{{tl|UK MP links}}, which is a general-purpose template for creating lots of external links to websites on MPs, including Millbanksystems. I would recommend use of this template for those whose career as MPs includes the period after 2001. It includes a parameter for linking to the current Hansards, but AFAICS that setup is broken :( | |||
| :#{{tl|UK MP links}}, which is an older single-purpose template (written by me) for linking to the Millbanksystems. It includes instructions on how to create the link, which are also applicable to the {{tl|UK MP links}} template. | |||
