LexSAOB
Add SAOB identifier to Wikidata Lexemes Wikidata Property:P8478/ example usage Wikidata. This script is maybe not that useful to run for anyone else besides the author in its current form. It is shared here to help others get started writing scripts to improve Wikidata.
It would be interesting to edit it to monitor the SAOB website for newly published articles/words.
This script can easily be modified to create new lexemes for every word found in the list from SAOB. Unfortunately that is not legal because of the database protection law.
Thanks
Big thanks to Magnus Sälgö for reverse engineering of the SAOB website to make this possible. <3
