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)
