Motivation

I just imported the paintings for the SFMOMA (Wikidata:WikiProject sum of all paintings/Collection/San Francisco Museum of Modern Art) and I noticed they keep some information about artists. Sometimes just basic information, sometimes biographies. Probably fills a gap for artists local to San Francisco. After importing I noticed they have https://www.sfmoma.org/api/collection/ and that can probably be used to fill mix'n'match. Multichill (talk) 12:17, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
