@Anders: I seem to have unintentionally derailed your excellent
thread. My apologies; I've taken responses to that subthread
offline. To return to your main point: we do need 'A strategy for
semi-automated article generation; and inclusion of Wikidata'.

And it is important to attract and expand this sort of expertise. Not
only through local chapter support but through collaboration across
different project-communities, as you say.
@Gerard: I second your vision for Wikidata. It is a natural place to
cultivate tools for large-scale creation and enhancement of
information. And for now it seems open to experimentation, being
bold, trying and reverting things.
Wikidata is a wiki. You indicate that the official
sources
need work. Wikidata is a good place to work on this.
+1 !
Sam.
