Hello everyone!

A change is coming soon to how you search on Wikidata. The upcoming change will allow you to switch your search between Item, Property, Lexeme and EntitySchema entity types, using a new dropdown-bar that will appear in the left-hand of the Wikidata search box.
Furthermore, your search terms will also be typeahead compatible, helping you find your desired result easier and faster.

These changes are available now on: https://test.wikidata.org and https://wikidata.beta.wmflabs.org, please help us test before they are released on Wikidata in approximately 1 week (11.06.2025).

Give your feedback on Phabricator ticket: T321543, or join the discussion and read more info on the full announcement: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Project_chat#Help_us_test_the_new_Search_box:_search_by_entity_type

Thank you!
