2. check wikt for verb

   see if we have a page for the infinitive, if not, do nothing.

3. run through all conjugated forms

   50 pages are attempted per verb, there are 62 conjugated forms but the infinitive must already exist, and several forms are identical and so listed on other pages

   if we don't have a page for the conjugated form, create one based on the following template, if we do, move on to next form.
