Fellow Wikidata enthusiasts,
In answer to questions about the purposes for ConceptMap (live at
http://ConceptMap.io), I've expanded the blog post and updated the
video. Here is the updated blog post:
http://learnjavafx.typepad.com/weblog/2016/01/brief-demo-of-conceptmap-v11-…
Also, for your convenience, here is a link to the updated video, as well
as the additional text in the post. I'd appreciate any continued input
and questions that you have:
https://vimeo.com/151407497 One of the core features of ConceptMap is
the synchronized navigation between Wikipedia articles and their
Wikidata semantic relationships. In the brief video, for example, the
Wikipedia article named "David Bowie" is displayed in the rightmost
panel. The semantic relationships defined in Wikidata for David Bowie
(whose Wikidata identifier is "Q5383") are displayed in the center
panel. The user can see the items related to David Bowie (e.g. All the
Young Dudes), as well as the relevant Wikidata properties (e.g.
performer). When the user clicks on a related item, the Wikipedia
article for that item appears in the rightmost panel. Conversely, when
the user clicks an article link in a Wikipedia page, the center panel is
updated to show the relationships defined in the Wikidata item
corresponding to that article. This synchronized navigation feature
enables the user to explore areas of interest using an approach that
combines structured (Wikidata relationships) and freeform (Wikipedia
links) navigation.
Another core feature of ConceptMap is the dynamically created directed
graph in the leftmost panel. When a Wikipedia article is displayed and
its corresponding Wikidata item appears in the title area, the "Pin
item" checkbox may be used to pin/unpin the item from the concept map.
Each of the pinned items appear as labeled circles (nodes) in the
concept map. As items are added to the graph, relationships from
Wikidata are displayed as labeled lines (links) between the nodes.
As shown in the video, the Wikidata icon in the upper right portion of
the page opens the Wikidata page for the selected item. This is useful
for adding missing relationships to Wikidata, as shown in the video
when adding "space rock" to the list of genres for his song entitled
Space Oddity. To share or bookmark a concept map, click the button
with the link icon as shown in the video. A shortened URL appears that
you can copy.
In future posts I plan to share details of the technologies and code
involved in creating this application. In the meantime, whether you are
a learner, researcher, teacher, or all of the above, I hope that you'll
take it for a spin!

some connectio
where missing in WD.I added them, so it helps people improve WD.
