Hi Thad,

The examples you mentioned are facts automatically extracted from natural language texts. It looks like those facts are not incorrect on their own: for instance, the first 3 people listed in https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q11629 seem to be painters indeed.

In my opinion, what is wrong here is the choice of the Wikidata property 'creator' (P170), which should be definitely replaced by some more appropriate property.

Thanks for reporting that.
Best,

Marco

        Can someone look into how or why all of those 'creators' were
        added with the Primary Sources Tool incorrectly on the topic
        'painting' ?

        WARNING:  The page actually will freeze for 1-2 min while the
        'creator' statement tries to load into the browser !
