More data #1

Pretty cool little package. More suggestions and possibly relevant links

Not sure how relevant this is, but I sometime wondered how many unique (and named) car characters there are in Cars trilogy, for example (my son's question). So I would turn to fan pages like this. It is not in tabular form, but as a community we could probably scrape/clean it into a table.

I imagine this could be an exciting dataset for teaching!

Thanks for the resources!

Some notes:

A dataset on Pixar characters would be cool to have. But yes, scraping that kind of information from that website might take a bit.

I'll keep this issue open to brainstorm other ideas.
