In the Wikicite (a Wikidata project) plugin I'm developing for Zotero, I plan to use your QuickStatements export translator to help users create new Wikidata entities for items without a QID. (BTW, see this discussion to create a JS tool that converts QS commands into MediaWiki API requests).
I was concerned about creating new entities with "author name string" (P2093) statements that could be resolved to "author" (P50) statements instead. I asked the WikiCite community, and some suggested that, for journal articles, I could use the item's DOI to try and fetch author ORCIDs from Crossref. Then I could use these ORCIDs to try and see (with a SPARQL query, for example) if the authors are in Wikidata already, to use P50 statements instead.
Similarly, the item's publicationTitle may be reconciled using Wikidata's reconciliation API, to try and include "published in" (P1433) statements in the QS export as well.
Does this sound like something you would be interested in that I add to the QuickStatements export translator? Or would you prefer that I just add it to the "QS command to MediaWiki API request" tool mentioned at the beginning?
