Hoi,
For many categories we have exactly that in Reasonator. This functionality
is based on "is a list of". It functions not for all categories or all
content for a category. Wikidata often shows more data particularly when
the categories from "other" Wikipedias have been harvested.
It would be relatively easy to continuously harvest data from Wikipedias
based on such categories.
Thanks,
GerardM

things that should be in the list ... could be useful.
This also applies to a huge number of Wikipedia categories (the non
subjective ones). It would be extremely useful to have queries describing
them attached to the Wikidata items for the categories.

Subject: Re: [Wikidata] A property to exemplify SPARQL queries
associated witha property
Hi!
Relaying a question from a brief discussion on
Twitter [1], I am curious
to hear how people feel about the idea of creating a a "SPARQL query
example" property for properties, modeled after "Wikidata property
example" [2]?
Might be nice, but we need a good way to present the query in the UI
(see below).
This would allow people to discover queries that
exemplify how the
property is used in practice. Does the approach make sense or would it
stretch too much the scope of properties of properties? Are there better
ways to reference SPARQL examples and bring them closer to their source?
I think it may be a good idea to start thinking about some way of
storing queries on Wikidata maybe? On one hand, they are just strings,
on the other hand, they are code - like CSS or Javascript - and storing
them just as strings may be inconvenient. Maybe .sparql file extension
handler like we have for .js and .json and so on?
