Very excited to try this for large scale authority research on artists (retrieving dates of birth & death, ULAN IDs, etc. from Wikidata)! Thanks in advance!

Dear Wikidata Community,
Following user feedback [0], I have made working with Wikidata data from within a Google Sheets context a lot easier by creating a special #WikidataBirthday release of the Wikipedia and Wikidata Tools for Google Spreadsheets add-on [1]. See a concrete example in [2].
Happy birthday, Wikidata 🎉! Humbled by all the work the Wikidata team are doing; thank you all!
Cheers, Tom
