Notified participants of WikiProject Antiquity Myths on Maps in a comprehensive database on Greek mythology (and a bit more, there are some historical figures as well), quite similar to MANTO. Each record provides links to others records (for genealogy, places, events, etc.) and more importantly and index of the passages where they appears in Apollodorus’ Library, Homer’s Iliad, and Pausanias’ Description of Greece. The texts are also hosted on the platform and allow for a quick check. I expect that the people, groups and places subsets can be readily associated, but the events subset might be too specific for Wikidata at the moment aside from some well known episodes.
