Aubrey - there are a LOT of mappings there. Am I correct that none of them are mappings to the {{cite}} templates?
Having been steeped (if not petrified) in MARC21 for decades, I could attempt a mapping to the {{cite}} templates. It would cover books, music, movies, possibly photographs, and maybe art works. Articles are not usually coded in MARC but a mapping could be made.
Note that there is a mapping in OpenLibrary from their books data (derived from MARC but not in MARC), and with a single click you get the filled in book citation template for the book. I use this a lot. Some of us have been wishing that OCLC WorldCat would do the same. It makes sense to have the mapping happen at the discovery point.

Of course, every template is different, although I remember a talk in
Wikimania about standardisation...
As part of my IEG on Wikisource, I developed the draft that David linked,
but it's very basic.
I don't know how far the work has gone in developing a Commons
"wikidata" repository,
and I'm not sure if Liam's (and others) work with the GLAMWIKI toolset
is related or not.
But we can definitely have a chat all together to update each other,
and see what is the state of the art regarding book metadata, templates
and Wikidata.

I hope you can build upon it.

Is there any "standard" tool to build upon, for MARC to {{cite

https://meta.wikimedia.org/__wiki/MARCsman
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/MARCsman> but it died with
Toolserver; if there's nothing else, it's worth reviving.
Context: as part of the work at BEIC
(https://en.wikipedia.org/__wiki/Wikipedia:GLAM/BEIC
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:GLAM/BEIC> ) I want to
figure out a quick and clean way to reference, on it.wiki
articles, books in their digital library: I'll probably use
{{cita libro}} or a wrapper for it. Metadata is in MARC, like
http://131.175.183.1/__webclient/MetadataManager?pid=__116634&descriptive_only=true
<http://131.175.183.1/webclient/MetadataManager?pid=116634&descriptive_only=true>
In addition we'll also upload hundreds books on Commons, see the
discussion there:
<https://commons.wikimedia.__org/wiki/Template_talk:Book#__Ancient_book_with_institution
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template_talk:Book#Ancient_book_with_institution>>
The only tools I know for metadata conversion towards Commons
are BUB and ia-upload (relying on Internet Archive).
