Since the program just requires string manipulation, maybe all the process can be handled from user side? Setting up a server or starting as a Toolforge developer is quite intimidating for me, since I didn't have background in tech. If someone here want to help or continue discussion regarding this, I'll be very happy to be part of this. > > Here's the link to the script: https://github.com/MarchellaAngelina/automated-conversion-of-attribute-proposal-fields-into-wikitext Instead of a Python tool running on Toolforge, it could be a JavaScript gadget running directly on Wikidata. It would make it easier to deploy and to enable, but the Google Docs integration may be trickier. Maybe Google Forms should just be dropped, and the form should also be on-wiki.
