we are taking a rather pragmatic approach to gathering the data we can find (freely available) regarding self-hosted wikibase instances.

story

as a person on the WBS team, I want to benefit from good data to enrich my understanding of our users' needs and to inform my decision making.

definition of done:

this is a container ticket to group all tickets related to acquiring data via the various methods including sparql, action api, and (where necessary) web scraping. when all sub tickets are completed then this ticket should be marked completed as well.
