I’ve created a GNOME Shell extension that allows the
user to search for Wikidata items directly from the shell. Currently you can search for
simple things such as “Obama”, “Book”, etc. I plan on adding support for complex queries
such as “the population of the earth” which would show the current population of the
earth. In the future I also see this extension handle the submission of new entries or
editing existing ones. Check it out here [1] if you’re interested. Pull requests are also
welcome ;)

Thanks, Bahodir!
Forwarding to the Wikidata mailing list so they get to see this too.
Cheers
