Hi Sandra,
I suspect this is a bit too nerdy, but I was reconciling some messy CSV data to Wikidata
recently and ended up writing a little Python library and command line tool that uses
wbgetentities API call.
I also created an awkward video I did for Day of Digital Humanities here:

Hoi,
When the list is a list of articles in a Wikipedia, try "Linked items" one
magnificent tool by Magnus that can be used for this..
Thanks,

Hi everyone,
I’ve been in the situation quite often (edit-a-thons; various to do lists) where I had a
list of terms (most usually names of a few hundreds of people, or titles of Wikipedia
articles), where I wanted to do a quick search on Wikidata to retrieve each of these
concept’s Q number.
Does anyone know of a tool that helps me make this easier? Enter a list of, say, 100 of
these search terms, and receive Q number suggestions for each of them? I’ve looked around
on wmflabs but have not found anything in that direction (also not with the help of Hay’s
awesome tool directory).
Till now, I’ve done all these searches manually - use an excel sheet, look for each term
individually, enter Q number for each term - quite accurate but very time-consuming!
Would appreciate all help/tips !
Thanks! Sandra (User:Spinster)
