Committee pages

It seems like some of our pages on congressional committees are currently in a weird state of being out-of-date and jumping the gun. This probably applies to more than just page, and I suggest everyone check pages that they have edited before, but specifically United States Senate Committee on the Budget seems to list Mike Enzi (retired) as ranking member, Alex Padilla (not yet sworn in) as a Democratic member, and Bernie Sanders (minority member until Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock join and help pass a new organising resolution) as chair. I'm not writing to blame any recent editors - in this case, the Budget Committee website, our main source, is also out of date, and the same is probably true of other committee sites (this is why I'm posting here and not on that talk page, although I wouldn't mind if someone wanted to post template:please see there). Still, I would encourage everyone to make sure their future edits are accompanied by reliable sources until committee membership and leadership settle down.

I'm curious as to how we can record committee assignments for both House and Senate members. Apparently members can be shuffled around depending on which particular congress. For example, Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene was a member of a couple of committees before she was stripped. Some members also become move on to Chairmanships or become Ranking Members. What is the preferred format to list the duration of membership and/or rank in a particular committee or subcommittee? PartedHeadache (talk) 01:02, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
