Module:Depicted people

The Module:Depicted people lists provided subjects. They can be both strings or Wikidata entity IDs. When they are Wikidata entity IDs, a wikilink on the user's language Wikipedia to that subject is provided.

Actually it list whatever Wikidata entity is provided, so the name should be Module:Wikidata labels or something more clear.

Usage example:

{{#invoke:Depicted people|main|Q62849|Foo Bar|Q7259|Q188954|Q7439}}
