This module is designed to import data from tables in Wikipedia articles into Wikidata. The first column of the table must be the name of the item.

• If this is a link (or a redirect) to an existing article which has a corresponding Wikidata item, then the data will be imported into this item.
• If the first column contains a valid identifier for a Wikidata item (e.g. Q123456) then the data will be imported into this item.
• If this is plain text or a redlink, then the data will be imported into a new Wikidata item.

• page - the name of the article/page to parse, e.g. |page=List of dams in South Africa
• config - details about what type of data is held in each column of the table formatted as type-property-option. Currently recognised types are:
  • label - the name of the article
  • wikilink - a link to an article which should be the value of the property, e.g. wikilink-P131
  • quantity - specify the unit in the third parameter, e.g. quantity-P2048-Q11573
  • year - a 4-digit year, e.g. year-P571
  • text - any text to import into a string datatype, e.g. text-P3562
  • coord - coordinate position, inside the {{coord}} template, e.g. coord-P625
  • donotuse (or any other unrecognised type) - indicates a column that will not be imported
• common - a set of values that every item in the list should have, formatted in pairs as property-value, e.g. |common=P31-Q12323,P17-Q258

• The module will not import any claim if there is already a statement for that property in Wikidata, no matter if the value is the same or different to that being imported, and even if the value is marked as deprecated.
