Motivation[edit]

Aligulac is a large community-driven knowledgebase about StarCraft II esports scene. It tracks every official SC2 match and provides various analysis tools that are widely used by commentators during premier tournaments.

Since every player who have ever played at least one official SC2 match has an Aligulac page, only a fraction of these 24k players would be notable for Wikidata. We currently have about 50 Aligulac links set as described at URL (P973). At least 300 more can be extracted from Liquipedia ID (P10918) (StarCraft II Liquipedia links to Aligulac, too, here's the matching table I've collected). According to my estimations, at least 1000 notable items (including the ones that are yet to be created) can be linked with Aligulac. Facenapalm (talk) 14:09, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
