Motivation[edit]
They are very limited identifiers to connect writers and books of Indian literature. This ID will help All Indic-language Wikipedia and Urdu writer articles to connect Rekhta IDs. If Rekhta agrees and releases their database in PD, we may receive additional information like Biographies and list of works etc to populate on Wikidata.
