        This is a feature that I really miss so hard. I've used it in Clementine and also with Cantata.
        It seems there is a development branch for it but no solution until yet. I cannot understand, what's the problem to realize it in strawberry in the near future.

          One problem is that the Wikipedia API returns everything related to a specific search, not just artists. So I consider the Wikipedia API not the be good enough for our use-case.
          I think Clementine used it own API to filter the Wikipedia results, but I think there were still issues.

            What about using MusicBrainz's API instead? Their artist data seems to be derived from Wikipedia as well.
