Hi Michael,
I had blocked your IP before I saw this email. We have a bot policy (
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Bot) that requires coders to get
approval before they can run their scripts (see
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Requests_for_permissions/Bot).

Your script did look pretty cool though :)
