A source-backed database project intended to catalogue Japan’s current politicians across national, prefectural, and municipal government.

Why it surfaced

politicalist is still in Phase 0, with politician records yet to be populated, but its methodology is unusually concrete: 33,778 people are defined as the target universe, sources attach to individual fields, identifiers carry no political meaning, and uncertain name matches remain unresolved rather than being guessed. It also exposes read-only coverage and government APIs.

A File Musicians Can Argue With

August 7’s newborn domains include editable orchestral scores with up to 33 staves, 15 years of Valencia council interventions, a dementia-friendly frame with one optional button, and a memorial golf tournament whose winner wears the Meatball Jacket.

This is one of 1,000 discoveries in the 2026-08-07 Domain Arrivals issue.
