Those data types are provided by separate extensions:

• Math provides math
• WikibaseLexeme provides wikibase-lexeme, wikibase-sense and wikibase-form
• Score provides musical-notation

To use these types, you’ll need to find some way to install those extensions. (I’m not familiar enough with wikibase-docker to know how.)

Hi,  pywikibot experts:

I am now creating new Property using the wikidata Wbeditentity API, I'm running wikibase software via the wikibase-Docker images on my local machine, and use the pywikibot() script:

data = {
    'datatype': 'math',  # mandatory
    'descriptions': {
        'en': {
            'language': 'en',
            'value': row['Property Description']
        }
    },
    'labels': {
        'en': {
            'language': 'en',
            'value': row['Property Label']
        }
    }
}

params = {
    'action': 'wbeditentity',
    'new': 'property',
    'data': json.dumps(data),
    'summary': 'bot adding in properties',
    'token': site.tokens['edit']
}

req = site._simple_request(**params)
results = req.submit()

It would report errors when creating the following datatypes:

math 
wikibase-sense 
wikibase-lexeme 
musical-notation 
wikibase-form 

ERROR: P5973  param-illegal: A datatype was expected, but either missing or not recognized. [messages:[{'name': 'wikibase-api-not-recognized-datatype', 'parameters': [], 'html': {'*': 'A datatype was expected, but either missing or not recognized.'}}];     help:See http://localhost:8181/w/api.php for API usage.

The other types will return success, just list some:

external-id 
wikibase-item 
...
geo-shape 

However, the unsupported datatypes are in the supported datatype list by the official document: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Help:Data_type 

Any idea?
