There I was, looking for a small prediction project. How about dabbling with Scottish referendum polls?
My enthusiasm was quickly reduced when I noticed a few days ago that #ScotCen's data were less than optimally curated (dates & pollsters in the same cell? 🤷 👇 ).
https://whatscotlandthinks.org/questions/how-would-you-vote-in-the-in-a-scottish-independence-referendum-if-held-now-ask/But I now found that they also don't provide sample sizes for the polls either.
(Nor any of the results presented by commercial platforms. But that's their prerogative, I guess.)

The "What Scotland Thinks" page provides a useful collection of #OpinionPoll results.
https://whatscotlandthinks.org/opinion-polls/scotland-poll-results/But who thought it was a good idea to enter the date of the poll and the pollster in the same data field?
👇This is also the case for downloaded data. At least they are separated by a consistent character.

Highly recommend this recording of today’s #NatCen & #KingsCollegeLondon seminar on making #deliberative #democracy part of everyone’s lives. To paraphrase @OliverEscobar
#Deliberation is a way of communicating as old as humanity, it’s not a #Eurocentric story
And Claudia Chwalisz from #DemocracyNext
Taking part in deliberative processes can have a transformative effect on people, it can ignite their sense of #agency
