Qazpolit – Encyclopedia of Kazakhstan's public-political field
Qazpolit is an open knowledge base about people, organizations, media, and public movements in Kazakhstan. The project assembles structured profiles, relationships, events, and sources around actors who shape the country's public-political life.
What is already in the database
The database covers 14 editorial categories, from exile opposition and protest figures to politicians, media, NGOs, lawyers, speakers, social media, eco-activists, and religious organizations. Each profile combines core facts, event chronology, related entities, and a route back to source material.
How to use it
- Start with search or the index when you need a specific person or organization.
- Open the relationship graph and timeline to see context, roles, and event sequence quickly.
- Use related profiles and sources inside each dossier as the path for deeper verification.
Database coverage
Metrics are calculated from the published corpus and do not replace verification of individual statements.

Russian is the primary editorial version. Other languages are published after editorial review, without machine-filled content.
Corpus enrichment queue
These workstreams are generated from live quality metrics. They show what is already connected to the database and what still needs editorial review.
Key relationship review
Relationships appear in the graph only after source linkage and editorial review; archival cross-references stay in the queue.
Next actionExport the highest-traffic relationship queue and attach source-backed approve/reject decisions.

Immutable source snapshots
Public URLs can change, so priority sources need snapshots or hashes.
Next actionMaterialize snapshots for cited sources that are already public and technically fetchable.

Reviewable statement layer
Draft facts are already structured, but the public statement layer opens only after review.
Next actionSelect priority draft statements, add qualifiers and publish only reviewed source-backed facts.

Monitoring dates and clusters
Mentions become useful when publication date, source, duplicate cluster and match quality are visible.
Next actionBackfill lawful publication dates, cluster reposts and surface source/date confidence.

QazGeo location review
Maps should expose accepted, reproducible locations rather than raw extraction candidates.
Next actionReview featured-profile candidates first and persist only accepted QazGeo locations.

Documents and text blocks
Primary documents should be segmented into citable blocks and linked back to profiles.
Next actionAdd OCR/page blocks and attach entity anchors only where document text supports the match.

Data quality queue
This public view turns abstract quality warnings into concrete groups of dossiers, sources, and documents awaiting editorial or technical work.
Dossiers without event chronology
Chronology is required for sequence checks, date filters, and analytical collections.
Next actionAdd dated timeline events from cited sections or primary sources.

Dossiers without images
Images improve profile recognition, but must carry source, alt text, and rights metadata.
Next actionAttach rights-cleared images with source, caption and alt text.

Mentions without publication dates
Dates are required for filters, timelines, deduplication, and monitoring freshness.
Next actionBackfill publication dates from lawful source metadata and keep uncertain matches pending.
- open items

Documents without precise profile anchors
Documents become more useful when a profile links to a specific text block rather than the whole file.
Next actionLink documents to exact text blocks only when aliases or source text support the anchor.

Public API and contract assets
Public contexts, contract material and citation rules are exposed through the AI index, sitemap and data-quality surface.

How to read evidence labels
A label applies to a specific chapter, event, or relationship. It describes evidence state, not an overall judgement of a person.
A direct link points to a reviewed primary source or a reliable secondary source.
A direct source link is attached, but editorial content review has not yet been recorded.
The material was migrated from the Qazpolit archive and retains a link to the original publication.
The text was structured from the editorial corpus, but sources have not yet been mapped to individual statements.
No direct link is attached yet; the fragment should not be treated as source-level verified.
Publishing principles
The corpus combines open sources with material migrated from the Qazpolit archive. Every block shows its evidence state, and a missing direct source link remains visible. The platform does not rate the people or organizations it describes; the material is presented for reference.
- The project shows links, dates, statuses, and sources, but it does not replace investigation or legal assessment.
- If evidence is missing, the block stays hidden or intentionally incomplete.
- Priority goes to verifiable open sources and to structuring existing material, not decorative copy.
