Idea:

Prerequisite:

Stefan's approach:
1. Fill in thanados specific template like this one
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1IIPGKvSRNi6Qeir6070VS4u7uvHdlpYenEhRkCaGJcI/edit?usp=sharing
2. Get the data as CSV to OpenAtlas
3. Map the CSV to the generic import format (Name, Alias, Geometry, Types, Dates, Reference Systems etc.)
4. Witchcraft and Magic -> all is imported to OpenAtlas
To-do:
* Alias* ✅
* Geometry as WKT* ✅
* Existing External Reference System with ID including identifier* ✅
* Value types* ✅
* Administrative Unit* ✅
* Historical Place* ✅
* Existing References with ID including page number
* OpenAtlas Class name to know which level the place is
* Parent import ID
(* These will be added to all import options)
* Better warnings (since table can get crowded, make a list of specific warnings)
* Remove @no cover@ by manipulating csv in tests ✅
* What if duplicate reference systems are given ✅
Refactor:
* Naming of CSV header
