Hi everyone,

The following spreadsheet contains the latest DBpedia <-> Wikidata mapping effort both for properties and classes (cf. the 2 sheets) made by the GSoC student so far.

Since I am his main mentor, feel free to ask me further details.
Hope this helps!

Cheers,

Marco

    enough to derive a mapping between a wikipedia template and
    wikidata. Actually,
    I was under the impression the wikidata <-> dbpedia already existed,
    but I don't
    see it on the site right now. Adding Anja Jentzsch, she might know.

    Even if it proves too tricky to map individual template parameters
    this way, it
    should still be possible to at least detect the class (instanceof)
    of an item
    based on the templates the respective wikipedia page contains. We should
    definitely map dpedia classes to wikidata items.


Sergey Skovorodkin is working on a dbpedia<->wikidata mapping as a GsoC
for DBpedia this year
https://github.com/dbpedia/extraction-framework/wiki/GSoC-2014-Progress-Sergey-Skovorodkin

I'm CCing him to see if he can report the status or if he might need
help with our properties, maybe we are missing some or need to clarify
some others. Sometimes we are using qualifiers to extend properties
instead of creating new ones.

Cheers,
Micru
