As you probably know, as you are reading this, my name is Harry Vilday, and I am the founder, owner and writer-in-chief here at Interviewer-Line, if you are taking the time to read this, you probably spend a decent time online, if so you may know Scarlet Threadgold, also known as ScarletLiberal online, who owns and runs Outsider Polling, which is being rebranded to Outsider Projections, which is a forum for her, myself and our friend Will (TheOtherWill_NE) to create and map election predictions, and we have decided to merge Interviewer-Line with Outsider Projections.
Why?
Why we have done this is that Interviewer-Line focuses on smaller, local stories generally, interviewing small parties and individual councillors on their opinion, and Outsider Projections focuses on the smaller, lesser thought about aspects of projections, such as smaller parties or smaller elections (such as our Greater Manchester by-election Nowcast, the first of it's kind), so therefore the merger will allow for a place for Outsider to keep it's projections and Interviewer to work on those smaller stories with them.
What's changing?
Well, both us of have enacted a rebrand, Outsider Polling became Outsider Projections (as there was no polling happening), Interviewer-Line has a new, better made logo (as does Outsider Projections), and the website itself has had a clean up to look generally tidier and fancier, you can find Outsider Projections online at @OutsideProjectn on Twitter/X, and Interviewer-Line will be promoted by myself at @HVilday, my own Twitter/X account, atleast until Interviewer-Line gets more writers.
Why is the website still Interviewer-Line?
Simple, Google Sites is finnicky and more information can't be fit without looking terribly ugly, and Interviewer-Line is 'predominant' on the website whereas Outsider Projections is 'predominant' on social media.
What can we expect?
Semi-consistent articles, maybe a better quality to the website as time goes on, and higher quality nowcasts, projections and election news, all stored in one place.
