Replying to @YaleBritishArt
@YaleBritishArt you seem to have changed your collections website domain, URI scheme, and artist keys recently.
That irrecoverably breaks the 3,404 links from wikidata to your site.
Was that anticipated?
Can you provide an old-to-new URI lookup for WD?

I often hear Americans & rich brits justify buying oversized, polluting vehicles by claiming they need them because they live in the "countryside".

🇧🇷 And the winner of #WikiLovesMonuments 2021 is Donatas Dabravolskas with this wonderful photo of Royal Portuguese Cabinet of Reading in #Brazil. Great shot for a spot often crowded by tourists.

Dat sportscholen open blijven en de bibliotheken dicht gaan is bedacht door mensen die het geld hebben om naar de sportschool te gaan en die nooit de bibliotheek nodig gehad hebben om rustig te studeren.

Same city, same neighborhood, same day.
Left: the old way of urban planning.
Right: the future way of urban planning.

The N205 motorway and Spaarne River combine to create a unique set of barriers to pedestrians and cyclists in the south of Haarlem.
The ‘Buitenbruggen’ is the unique solution: a 5.5m wide, 110m long underpass—built in 2011—that allows users to walk or bike below the water level. – at Haarlem, Nederland
