Phew, finished adding VIAF/Wikidata/Imslp to Johann Strauss Sohn's works... Damn, what a mess... I couldn't find Wikidata/VIAFs for 3-5 items, though

Wikidata's search is bad: you have extra words in your query (like, "Scherz-Polka") and it stops to work, plus we have quite a lot of mistypes and alternate titles for the works, which makes it worse. The most reliable query was just "composer_name opus_number". But without it, it would be harder. VIAF is also a mess: at the end of the list 2 ids per work were very common. One work even had 3 IDs (+2 if it was splitted to parts[?]), ouch.
MBS-11017: Clean up IMSLP to HTTPS and add validation

Realizing an URL is a duplicate but HTTPS is a different issue, but if we clean up there's less problems with that too :)

xplt: VIAF is just an automatic aggregator, no human ever looks over the data. They take what those associated "member libraries" send them and run some stuff on it.

Will merges affect MB?

The VIAF IDs should be stable, which means they redirect to the new one.
