Hi Andy,
You hit the nail on the head! I have been cataloguing the artists of
the Netherlands since 2009 and have created tons of stubs on Wikipedia

I agree that it makes sense that one of the first things to do when
creating a new wikipedia article should be to create an infobox which is

enough for a Wikipedia article, create a Wikidata item and include all the
pertinent information for that person. You may even be surprised in finding
