Sum of all Paintings

[edit]

We just hit 100,000 painting items on Wikidata (mostly paintings in collections of top museums that have been added in bulk). We have way more than that in files on Wikimedia Commons, so there is still lots of work to do. To compare, we only have about 6,000 articles on paintings and only about half of those are linked to painting items directly (try the autolist query claim[31:3305213] and link[enwiki]). Many articles on Wikipedia that feature a painting are not about the painting, but about the paintings subject (in the case of people or buildings). Here's hoping the next 100,000 paintings will take much less time! I would like to see a tool to gther the information from Wikidata painting items and make them available in an infobox for use in WIkipedia articles. I should probably set up a WP:SoaP here on enwiki just for that and for easily crosslinking to Wikidata project pages. Jane (talk) 07:21, 14 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
