A dataset containing pre-scraped party colors and logos from Wikipedia for political parties in the Party Facts database. This dataset is bundled with the package to provide fast lookups without requiring live Wikipedia scraping.
Format
A tibble with 5 columns:
- url
Wikipedia URL of the party page (character)
- color
Primary party color as normalized HEX code, e.g., "#0015BC" (character)
- all_colors
List column containing all party colors as character vector (list)
- logo_url
URL to the party logo image on Wikimedia Commons (character)
- last_updated
Date when the data was scraped from Wikipedia (Date)
Source
Data scraped from English Wikipedia party pages. Party list from Party Facts database: Döring and Regel (2019) <doi:10.1177/1354068818820671> and Bederke, Döring, and Regel (2023) <doi:10.7910/DVN/TJINLQ>.
Details
This dataset contains pre-scraped color and logo information for political parties from the Party Facts Wikipedia dataset, covering parties worldwide that have English Wikipedia pages with available color data.
The data is used by default in [get_party_color()], [get_party_logo()], and [get_party_info()] to provide instant lookups. If a party is not found in this dataset, the functions automatically fall back to live Wikipedia scraping.
Color codes are normalized to uppercase 6-digit HEX format (e.g., "#FF0000"). Logo URLs point to images hosted on Wikimedia Commons.
To regenerate or update this dataset, see the script at `data-raw/update.R` in the package source.
