Task 1: Inference of depicts statements for botanical illustrations =
How it works
The bot will be be manually triggered and automatically go through all categories for botanical illustrations adding depicts statements for the matching species.
An analogous task has been approved on the Wikidata end to add the information as, e.g. image (P18) statements.
It will only add depicts statements.
The code is available at https://github.com/lubianat/illustration_to_depicts_wikidata_bot
How does it handle existing/conflicting statements?
This task is purely additive – it will only create new statements with qualifiers saying they were inferred from categories.
