Hi,
A number of years ago I was having some very frustrating times with
the identifier instability in dbpedia. Two people looking up an
identifier for the same concept at different times ended up with
different identifiers.
So I created a proof of concept, dbpedialite, which uses Wikipedia
PageIDs:
http://www.dbpedialite.org/things/87851
(At the time there was a page title edit war between Stoat and Ermine)
But now we have Wikidata – which solves this problem much better – so
I should really get on and decommission dbpedialite.
What are you using Wikipedia Page IDs for? Might it be better to
store the Wikidata ID and then lookup the Wikipedia page on demand?

Hi Nick,
Please don't decommission dbpedialite, it does provide utility on other
fronts too :)
