Hi,

To answer my own question (in case someone else has the same challenge in future): the Wikidata SPARQL end-point is also available at the very similar URL:

https://query.wikidata.org/sparql?query=%7BSPARQL%7D

and this version does return RDF/XML. This is all nicely documented in the Wikidata documentation [1].

Hi,

I have just been exercising the SPARQL end-point [1], and have successfully retrieved birth and death details for artists mentioned in the ODNB. That is great, and I am really pleased about it. However, I would ideally like my CONSTRUCT statement to produce a machine-processible result, and for me that would mean RDF/XML. Is there an argument I can add to the URL below which would have the effect of returning a RDF/XML response?

Thanks,

Richard
