Yesterday, Magnus added the Design & Art Australia Online database (formerly the Dictionary of Australian Artists Online) was added to his 'mix-n-match' tool for Wikidata: https://tools.wmflabs.org/mix-n-match/?mode=catalog_details&catalog=115
Like it says on the tin, this is a database of Australian artists compiled from a whole range of unis associated with the project (it's an ARC-funded project based at UNSW). As such, it's a very useful authority control system for Wikidata. Click the link above and go to 'auto' or perhaps 'game mode' to start connecting DAAO records to Wikidata items :-) Other Australian artist authority control systems already in Mix'n'Match are: National Gallery of Victoria artist ID: https://tools.wmflabs.org/mix-n-match/?mode=catalog_details&catalog=95 Australian Dictionary of Biography: https://tools.wmflabs.org/mix-n-match/?mode=catalog_details&catalog=63 There's LOTS of other Authority Control systems in Mix'n'Match if Australian artists aren't your cup of tea: https://tools.wmflabs .org/mix-n-match/? Meawhile, if you'd like to know more about the Wikidata 'sum of all paintings' project, here's the homepage: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/ Wikidata:WikiProject_sum_of_all_paintings Cheers, -Liam wittylama.com Peace, love & metadata
