And if you use that tool you can easily paste your excel sheet in wikiformat as source in the big box labeled wikitext.

E.g. By entering:

[[Search]]
[[Term]]

the tool will return

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)
