automatically resolve metadata for known entities (movies etc.) #39

Open FND opened 11 years ago

my to-do list currently contains (among other things) a lengthy collection of movies I should watch - obviously that should be moved into BFW eventually

ideally, filling in the title and tagging it as "movie" should suffice; the system would then retrieve metadata (summary, image, cast) from an external auhority (pre-defined; e.g. IMDB, Wikipedia / DBpedia) - e.g. using Jon Moore's HTML-Hypermedia library

the same could be done for similar entities (video games, ?)

whether this occurs in edit or view mode is up for discussion

clearly this goes way beyond a barely functioning wiki, but it would be rather neat (in the "actually useful for FND" sense)
