Hoi, I have been triggered to think about the subject of providing resource support from a data point of view.
Providing support for the small and starting projects is admirable but I feel that the same functionality will serve any and all projects. As I used to blog regularly in the past, I have blogged twice on the subject. https://ultimategerardm.blogspot.com/2025/10/providing-resources-for-subject-used-in.html https://ultimategerardm.blogspot.com/2025/10/using-ai-for-both-wikidatawikipedia.html We can discuss this.. If it is, let me know where.
