Celebrity_Wikimedia_Scraper

This was code used to get images as well as image taken dates from wikimedia commons (https://commons.wikimedia.org/)

How to use

Download the files. There are 2 ways to download images and dates:

Download from a list of names: Open celeb_list_execute.py and specify a list of names (Format: FirstName LastName).
Download from a single name: Open wikimedia_webscraper.py and modify the input_name variable.

Note: The more famous a celebrity is, the more images you will get.
