On the English Wikipedia there are monument lists for China, but those are in a format which isn't handy and can't be used easy for Wiki Loves Monuments.
Awesome find! I just read https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Major_Site_Protected_for_Its_Historical_and_Cu... : "In 1999 it was reported that there were some 350,000 immovable cultural properties in China, of which 70,000 were protected at one of the three main levels..."
Would be great to have someone who understands Chinese dig up this list although the current list of 2351 items should keep us busy for some time.
Is anyone willling (and able) to convert the lists to a template based system with template rows?
The lists can be found on: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Major_National_Historical_and_Cultural_Sites_%... See for the others the navigational bar at the bottom or in the category. It would be welcome if there could be space for coordinates as well.
The lists look quite consistent so a bot with regular expressions should catch most items.

Ps. Just found https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Historic_Sites_of_Japan for Japan, also needs converting.
