Schema changes

  • No schema changes to existing data
  • Xi data's source_name and speech_event_type_en columns were dropped to match existing schema
  • bulletin_id, location, venue columns are null for Xi speeches (not available from source)

Data quality

  • 0 duplicate speech_ids with existing data
  • All 17 columns present and dtype-compatible

some polishing notes for later

  • some speech texts include date and title again at the beginning due to the website format (can likely be parsed out after first "Comrades:" though this pattern may appear elsewhere in the text too, so it's worth being careful)
  • some speech text includes date and source in the end due to format of the website (parsing after the last "!" might work, though I'm not sure all entries follow this pattern)
