I wouldn’t call that a bug – it’s documented to be in that order: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikibase/Indexing/RDF_Dump_Format#Globe_coord...
The simple value of the coordinate is the WKT string with the
coordinates… The order of the coordinates in WKT is longitude, latitude (since format version 0.0.2).

Hi all,
I was collecting geodata from Wikidata and showing them into a map they look quite weird... So I look at them more intensely and coords seem inverted.
Try with a simple query like: http://tinyurl.com/ht9ffj3
And check the coords on a item and on its result in the third column. The third column have Point(lon, lat), isn't it?
