Motivation

[edit]

TV Maze is a database of television series for which we already have a number of Wikidata properties for. This may come in handy because ever since IMDb deprecated their character pages there has been a lack of identifiers for television characters.


Unfortunately, there does seem to be some duplication with characters that appear in multiple series (see the Saul Goodman example) but I don't think this is a major problem and it can be dealt with using qualifiers. --Lewis Hulbert (talk) 01:09, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
