Hello,
The Gene Wiki team [1] is currently loading and synchronizing several
biomedical ontologies from the OBO Foundry [2]. We do have somewhat
generalizable code for creating Wikidata importers from OWL files [3]. For
the moment, we have held back doing mass imports of *all* CC0 ontologies
because each bot still requires customization and maintenance, and keeping
the synchronization current is a continual challenge [4]. (And, as a
general principle we only import resources that we ourselves have a
tangible use for to avoid "stamp collecting".) If there are specific
ontologies that you are interested in importing, we are happy to coordinate
to avoid duplication of effort.
Best,
-andrew

Dear all,
I thank you for your efforts. As shown in our research paper, many types
of Biomedical entities and relations are not supported by Wikidata. When I
saw OBO Library known to include many CC0 ontologies related to the medical
field, I found that some of the ontologies support missing types of
biomedical items and statements.
http://www.ontobee.org/. I knew that
several OBO ontologies have already been integrated to Wikidata. I ask if
there is a work to include all OBO library ontologies to Wikidata. As well,
I ask if there is already a work to automatically update Wikidata if OBO
ontologies are updated.
Yours Sincerely,
