Tool of the week

   - Resolver <https://tools.wmflabs.org/wikidata-todo/resolver.php> allows
   you to quickly find an item based on a property+value string pair. It is
   especially useful for checking whether an external identifier such as a
   VIAF ID (P214) or Getty AAT ID (P1014) is already in use in Wikidata.
