Hi Alex, are you aware of Structured data on commons? I got pretty excited recently. I was working on a pet project to navigate specimen collections from natural history museums. This is tarsier (https://andrawaag.github.io/tarsier/index.html) What it does is that it search GBIF (an aggregator for biodiversity data & images) and transfers the images to commons to be reused on wikipedia articles on species. Today I ventured a bit into doing the same for Wikipathways. IMO this has quite some potential to integrate renderings of pathway to wikidata. I started manually adding statements on commons for pathways already there. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:CalciumRegulationInCardiacCell_WP536.png and https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q30230893 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:NicotineChromaffinCells_WP1603.png and https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q29883406 Maybe you knew this already, but icymi I thought about dropping it here commons.wikimedia.orgcommons.wikimedia.org File:CalciumRegulationInCardiacCell WP536.png - Wikimedia Commons (359 kB) https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:CalciumRegulationInCardiacCell_WP536.png
