I'm not as familiar with Wikidata as WP - are the citation "templates" the same? If so, I'll do some mapping. Where would it be best to put them?

        Aubrey - there are a LOT of mappings there. Am I correct that
        none of
        them are mappings to the {{cite}} templates?

        Having been steeped (if not petrified) in MARC21 for decades, I
        could
        attempt a mapping to the {{cite}} templates. It would cover books,
        music, movies, possibly photographs, and maybe art works.
        Articles are
        not usually coded in MARC but a mapping could be made.


    Vlsergey offered to make a gadget to import MARC records into
    Wikidata entries! :D Please get in touch. Thanks both in advance, it
    will be great.

        Note that there is a mapping in OpenLibrary from their books data
        (derived from MARC but not in MARC), and with a single click you
        get the
        filled in book citation template for the book. I use this a lot.
        Some of
        us have been wishing that OCLC WorldCat would do the same. It makes
        sense to have the mapping happen at the discovery point.
