In the absence of an Amazigh knowledge database structuring biographical information, we propose a methodology to elaborate such database. In this paper, we give a brief overview of the concerned topics while introducing the respective approaches, and we present the process of making our biographical collection. Furthermore, we discuss the challenges we meet in finding the right balance between what we need to collect and what is available online. Our methodology focuses on biographical information extraction from press dispatches that have been annotated with named entities. It is based on linguistic patterns and lexical markers, while adopting 'local grammars' concept.
