This script does the following:
- On https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiAfrica/African_cities it will get the name of all the cities
- It will query the wikiData API endpoint with the name of the city:
https://www.wikidata.org/w/api.php?action=wbsearchentities&search=Name&language=en&format=json - Using the label, entity ID and the concept URI it will query wikiData again to get all the data about the city as JSON
- It will compare the properties of the entity with the list of properties that are deemed useful
- It will write a csv file called sets.csv with 4 columns: Name, ID, amount of properties and list of properties
This script was written as part of the Workshop WIKI SUPSI - Chapter 2 by Fabian Frei
