Thanks, emjirp! Great news! Quoting from [2] for context before you clickthrough:

"The data set contains triples, each consisting of (i) text, a short, raw natural language string; (ii) url, a related concept, represented by an English Wikipedia article's canonical location; and (iii) count, an integer indicating the number of timestext has been observed connected with the concept's url. Our database thus includes weights that measure degrees of association."

"The database that we are providing was designed for recall. It is large and noisy, incorporating 297,073,139 distinct string-concept pairs, aggregated over 3,152,091,432 individual links".
