## Recommendations

### Batch 9 Strategy (Target: 10-15 enrichments)

1. **Manual Wikidata Search** (Most Reliable)
   - Search each top candidate on Wikidata
   - Verify location and institution type match
   - Record Q-numbers in enrichment script

2. **Automated Fuzzy Matching** (Faster, Lower Precision)
   - Use existing `scripts/enrich_brazil_batch9.py` template
   - Adapt fuzzy matching from previous batches
   - Manually verify all matches before committing

3. **Hybrid Approach** (Recommended)
   - Manual search for top 10 candidates (highest confidence)
   - Fuzzy matching for candidates 11-15 (with verification)
   - This balances speed and accuracy

### Expected Outcome

- **Current coverage**: 31/212 (14.6%)
- **After Batch 9** (+10 institutions): 41/212 (19.3%)
- **After Batch 9** (+15 institutions): 46/212 (21.7%)

### Next Batches

- **Batch 10**: Focus on remaining MUSEUM institutions (42 without Wikidata)
- **Batch 11**: Focus on ARCHIVE + LIBRARY (12 total without Wikidata)
- **Batch 12**: Cherry-pick high-scoring EDUCATION_PROVIDER institutions

**Projected 30% coverage**: Batches 9-11 combined (~35-40 total enrichments)
