Dear all, I thank you for your efforts. I tested OpenTapioca tool. It is an interesting tool mainly for adding missing statements to Wikidata from Internet. However, it seems that it needs several improvements. For example, when I wrote "He is from Tunisia", the tool annotated "He" as the first name of a famous person. I also think that this important tool should not only support locations, organizations and people. It should also support human diseases, drugs and other types of Wikidata entries. In fact, I am absolutely working with the significant contributions of the main research contributors of Wiki Project Med and University of Sfax on Bibliometric-Enhanced information methods for the enrichment of Wikidata with missing biomedical statements and references. Adapting OpenTapioca to support biomedical items and adding an API service for it will be an excellent contribution to our project. If Mr. Antonin Delpeuch likes to join our project beginning this summer, we will be honoured to collaborate with him. Yours Sincerely, Houcemeddine Turki (he/him) Medical Student, Faculty of Medicine of Sfax, University of Sfax, Tunisia Undergraduate Researcher, UR12SP36 GLAM and Education Coordinator, Wikimedia TN User Group Member, WikiResearch Tunisia Member, Wiki Project Med Member, WikiIndaba Steering Committee Member, Wikimedia and Library User Group Steering Committee Co-Founder, WikiLingua Maghreb Founder, TunSci ____________________ +21629499418
