Describe relationship to / use related work (e.g. pkg RecordLinkage)

[ablaette]

We do not yet explain the relationship of LinkTools to other tools for record linkage sufficiently: Doing so would make the relevance of our contribution clearer.

An important reference is the RecordLinkage package: https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/RecordLinkage/index.html
What else should we refer to? What relevant R (Python, ...) packages should be mentioned?

At this stage, we have a focus to support workflows to realize deterministic data linkage, because the data we predominantly work with and that we publish is not very well suitable for the probabilistic approach: Wikidata IDs falsely assigned to political actors would undermine the trust the data receives.

Yet when and how can we use (existing) tools for probabilistic record linkage?
