Places of the events, as Wikidata items

The place of each event record of the sources, as a Wikidata item (schema:location). Where a source names a Wikidata item (Wikidata, and the GND through the Wikidata item of its place), the item is taken as it is. The names of city, region and country (Springer, the portal, ConfIDent, and the titles of the dblp proceedings) are looked up in Wikidata: a city name in the country of the event, preferring settlements and, among several, the best known (the most Wikipedia articles). Where no city is found, the region or the country. The file ls-places-matches.tsv.gz lists every link with the mention it comes from, its rule and the number of candidates.
