I have joined the development team of the ProteinBoxBot (https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User:ProteinBoxBot) . Our goal is to make Wikidata the canonical resource for referencing and translating identifiers for genes and proteins from different species.

Currently adding all genes from the human genome and their related identifiers to Wikidata takes more then a month to complete. With the objective to add other species, as well as having frequent updates for each of the genomes, it would be convenient if we could increase this throughput.

Would it be accepted if we increase the throughput by running multiple instances of ProteinBoxBot in parallel. If so, what would be an accepted number of parallel instances of a bot to run? We can run multiple instances from different geographical locations if necessary.  

Kind regards,

Andra
