Hi Maarten, Thank you for this improvement. As you know Italian monuments' lists are organized by region, so every sublist has a link to the Commons category [[Category:Cultural heritage monuments in <region-name>]]. But in the database[1], under "commoscat" says 0. Why is it like this? Am I missing something? Another thing I have not completely understood is how can you tell the category of single monuments (like the church above), for example in the Italian list some monuments have a category on their own (see, for example [2]) which is, obviously, more precise than the general category "Cultural heritage monuments in <region-name>". Should we had to these entries a commonscat field with the precise cat? is there a way to tell the bot automatically which category is or we should do this by hand? Thanks again for you precious work.
