Hi all
When exporting entities as RDF, I need a way to represent a property's type
(like time, geo, item, etc - not to be confused with the data value type). I
could just use a string, but logically, the types should be identified by an URI.
But how to construct that URI? The types are not part of the content (they are
not entities), nor are they part of the wikibase ontology (they are not
hardcoded, but registered at runtime). I can just pretend they are part of the
ontology, but it will not be possible to resolve the resulting URIs to something
useful.
Do we need
www.wikidata.org/type/foo URIs that redirect to some
Special:WikibaseType page? Or is there a simpler solution?
