text: 'Finding information about people in the World Wide Web is one of the most
common activities of Internet users. It is now impossible to manually analyze
all this information and new approaches are needed that are capable of processing
the large-scale heterogeneous data in order to extract the pertinent information.
The Wikipedia community still puts much effort in manually adding structured data
to biographical articles, the so-called {{Persondata}} template. Thanks to this
kind of metadata, semantically-enriched information concerning the biographee
(e.g. name, date of birth, place of birth) can be extracted and processed by search
engines. But it is a rather time-consuming task and users quite often forget to
add this template: some biographies contain persondata, others do not. There is
considerably less work done on developing approaches to automatically enhance
English Wikipedia biographies with persondata and therefore improve the quality
of structured user contributions. Within this paper, we describe our method to
automatically generate persondata from biographical information in Wikipedia articles.'
