Task: Add an OpenCorporates mapping
10-15 minute task. Add an OpenCorporates entity ID to a WikiRate Company page.
Why
OpenCorporates maintains a huge open database of data about legal corporate entities, while WikiRate maintains a huge open database of data about reporting companies. By mapping the two, you can make it possible for people to perform analyses that help to tackle corruption and to create a trusted business ecosystem.
