I want to build a respectful reference directory of the world's cemeteries as a fast static website, generated entirely from open data I can legally use.
The facts should come from Wikidata, which is CC0, so each cemetery page can show its name, location, when it was established, and a list of notable people buried there. Only include people who are clearly public figures, meaning Wikidata records their burial place, a death date, and they have an English Wikipedia article. Images should come from Wikimedia Commons with the license checked individually, shown with credit right next to the picture, plus one page listing every image credit in one place. I want to link out to Find a Grave and BillionGraves where useful, but never copy their content. Opening hours only appear if I actually fetched them live, with the date they were last checked.
Please write the scripts that pull and cache the raw data, save it locally, and then build tens of thousands of pages from it. I need search, a sitemap, an RSS feed, resized images, and clean structured data so search engines and AI crawlers can read it easily. Keep the pages light, with basically no JavaScript in the browser.
