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 http://tools.wmflabs.org/hay/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)
