Hi GerardM, about “importing from sources”: To be on the save site regarding data licenses and usage, for now we just want to compare existing data in Wikidata instead of importing additional data. But we have thought about a list of additional information in the report, so it can be added manually.
About “changes in the sources”: The plan is to update the data dumps regularly associated with running the cross-check on the latest data. About imported data from Widar or bots: So far as we understand it, it does not really affect those processes. The cross-check is performed on all verifiable properties (that map to the information of an external source) of verifiable items (that possess an external identifier to an implemented external source), regardless of how these items were created.
