I have a list of Wikipedia pages related to some entities and I want to select only geographical places and locations (cities, provinces, but also regions, mountains, rivers and so on).
I can easily select pages with coordinates but this is not enough since many places actually in Wikipedia are not associated to their coordinates. I guess I should use labels from Wikidata, but I never used them and I am a bit lost with Python API. For example, if I use wptools:
import wptools
page = wptools.page('Indianapolis')
print(page.get_wikidata())
I obtain this:
www.wikidata.org (wikidata) Indianapolis

How can I extract only the labels? I suppose there exists a label "THIS IS A LOCATION" but how to use it? Thanks in advance
