Task/s: Repeatedly import data about Czech Veteran Trees to Wikidata from an authoritative source

Code: The component developed (GitHub) uses Wikidata Toolkit. The component can be used in various pipelines for various tasks loading data into Wikidata.

Function details:

The component itself can be used for generic editing of Wikidata through the Wikidata Toolkit. It is developed in scope of the Wikidata & ETL project grant and was demoed at a Wikimania 2019 workshop and poster.
In the current task, it will update data about Czech Veteran Trees from the authoritative source by means of an ETL pipeline using the component.
This means that missing trees will be added, information about existing trees will be updated, if updated in the source.
The pipeline will be scheduled to run periodically (probably monthly).
More tasks (data source) will be added as separate requests in future.

@Jakub Klímek: Isn't it possible to add location (P276) and/or narrow down location by located in the administrative territorial entity (P131)? Lymantria (talk) 06:23, 7 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Lymantria: It is possible. However, the location coordinates in the source API are in a Czech-specific system (J-TSK) and we still have some work to do on translation to WGS84 usable in Wikidata, but we are working on that. Jakub Klímek (talk) 09:58, 7 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I am ready to approve this request in a couple of days, provided that no objections will be raised. Lymantria (talk) 13:59, 9 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
