Hi James,

Reasonator uses the "official" wikidata API (your first example) to get the "related" information. All statements with a value type "item" create a "normal" Wikipedia-like link in the database, so you can get "incoming" links to see which items refer to your start item. Example for Cambridge:

http://www.wikidata.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=linkshere&titles=Q350&lhnamespace=0

You could do the same for "outgoing" links, but you already have that information in the form of claims/statements from wbgetentities.

Cheers,

Magnus

Magnus, et al.,

I've been using parts of the Wikidata APIs to do the following:

- Get detail about an item. For example:
https://www.wikidata.org/w/api.php?action=wbgetentities&ids=Q42&props=labels|sitelinks|descriptions|claims

- Get items that are subclass of, instance of, or part of. For example:
http://wdq.wmflabs.org/api?q=claim[279:153]

Now I'd like to find out what items are related to an item through
various properties, as is demonstrated in Resonator. What techniques
and APIs are used?

Thanks,
James Weaver
