Hi all,

the German business registry contains roughly 2.2 million organisations. Some information is paid, but other is public, i.e. the info you are searching for at and clicking on UT (see example below):

https://www.handelsregister.de/rp_web/mask.do?Typ=e

I would like to add this to Wikidata, either by crawling or by raising money to use crowdsourcing concepts like crowdflour or amazon turk.

It should meet notability criteria 2: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Notability

2. It refers to an instance of a clearly identifiable conceptual or material entity. The entity must be notable, in the sense that it can be described using serious and publicly available references. If there is no item about you yet, you are probably not notable.

The reference is the official German business registry, which is serious and public. Orgs are also per definition clearly identifiable legal entities.

How can I get clearance to proceed on this?

All the best,
Sebastian
