Please do. Especially pay attention to languages other than English though. Because even if we get algorithms to write good descriptions for English are we going to do the same for all the other languages? Especially those where grammar is tricky and Wikidata doesn't even have the necessary information to make the grammar right? The other tricky side is determining why something is actually notable. That's not a trivial thing to determine based on the data we have. Cheers Lydia -- Lydia Pintscher - http://about.me/lydia.pintscher Product Manager for Wikidata Wikimedia Deutschland e.V.
