Task/s: Add Irish language labels and descriptions by translating the English descriptions.

Code: As with the first task related to placenames, the new descriptions have been compiled offline, and will be added with a simple pywikibot script. The first task is almost complete and is working very well, so I'm confident this second task will work too.

Function details: I collected a sample of about 20,000 items for people born in Ireland, or with ainm.ie biographies linked from Wikidata, and for whom the Irish description is missing. I gathered the most common 1000 descriptions (some, like "Irish politician" appeared hundreds of times in the sample) and translated them manually. I'd like to use this script to add them to Wikidata. --Kevin Scannell (talk) 16:28, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
