Dear Wikibase Community,

Today we’re releasing a bugfix release for WBS WDQS: version 2.0.1. It fixes an issue where standard SPARQL prefixes injected by WDQS would not reference Wikidata. With this fix, prefixes such as wd: and wdt: do reference Wikidata. Thanks a lot to @fdeuze https://github.com/fdeuze for identifying and reporting the problem.

Find the relevant changelog here https://github.com/wmde/wikibase-release-pipeline/blob/main/build/wdqs/CHANGELOG.md. The new image is available on Docker Hub https://hub.docker.com/r/wikibase/wdqs/tags.
