Wikidata feels empty... even data on people is almost non-existing.
The Italian Wikipedia has the most complete persondata dataset in Wikimedia world, ready for import. Legoktm's bot was almost ready to parse the {{bio}} template, some code tweaking will be needed. No takers, really? This is very low hanging fruit for bots.

We have a lot of data on birth/death dates and places, profession and nationality, I guess Wikidata may profit from these data. Marco (Cruccone)

You should be able to import most (if not all) using https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Pywikibot/harvest_template.py . Just fire up your bot!

Or import with https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User:Underlying_lk/harvest_template_old.py which allows to import dates (timedate) too

I filed several bugs to get this functionality to Pywikibot too. * 64501 - Modify pywikibot.Timestamp to support Wikidata [1] * 64502 - Add more advanced time/date parsing functionality to textlib.py [2] * 64503 - Add time to harvest_template.py [3]
