Hello all,
I’m very happy to announce that another important feature for Lexicographical
Data <https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Lexicographical_data> has been
deployed: the ability to *query Lexemes in the Query Service*.
Here are a few examples:
- List of the longest words in English
<https://query.wikidata.org/#SELECT%20DISTINCT%20%3Fl%20%3Fword%20%3Flen%20WHERE%20%7B%0A%20%7B%0A%20%20%20%3Fl%20a%20ontolex%3ALexicalEntry%20%3B%20dct%3Alanguage%20wd%3AQ1860%20%3B%20wikibase%3Alemma%20%3Fword%0A%20%20%20BIND%28strlen%28%3Fword%29%20as%20%3Flen%29%20%20%0A%20%20%7D%20UNION%20%7B%0A%20%20%20%3Fl%20a%20ontolex%3ALexicalEntry%20%3B%20dct%3Alanguage%20wd%3AQ1860%20%3B%20ontolex%3AlexicalForm%2Fontolex%3Arepresentation%20%3Fword%0A%20%20%20BIND%28strlen%28%3Fword%29%20as%20%3Flen%29%20%20%0A%20%20%7D%0A%7D%20%0Aorder%20by%20DESC%28%3Flen%29%20%0ALIMIT%2020>,

The queries are based on the RDF mapping that you can find here
<https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:WikibaseLexeme/RDF_mapping>. Feel
free to help improving the documentation, so people can understand how to
build queries out of Lexemes.
Thank you very much to Tpt <https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User:Tpt> who’s
been doing a huge part of the work by mapping Lexemes in RDF, and Smalyshev
(WMF) <https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User:Smalyshev_(WMF)> who made the RDF
dumps available and integrated in the Query Service.
Feel free to play with it, bring some of these ideas of queries
<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Lexicographical_data/Ideas_of_queries>
to life, and let us know if you find any issue or bug. These can be stored
as subtasks of this one <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T193645> on
Phabricator.
If you have questions about Lexicographical Data in general, feel free to
write on the talk page of the project
<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata_talk:Lexicographical_data>. If you
have specific questions about the integration in the Query Service, you can
also ping Stas onwiki or on IRC.
Cheers,
