Hi Gabriel, its Gabriel :) 

If the query service is timing out on you and you'd like to work with a raw Wikidata JSON dump, you might find this package I've been working on useful.  

https://qwikidata.readthedocs.io/en/stable/index.html

You could use it to pull out all of the reference/source statements. There is an example of accessing references in the "entity" section of the docs,

Here's a version of the query with labels for the properties, making its
output a bit more readable:
