With respect to the RDF export I'd advocate for:
1) an RDF format with one fact per line.
2) the use of a mature/proven RDF generation framework.
Yes, keep it simple, use Turtle.
The additional benefit of Turtle is that is addresses a wide data
consumer profile i.e., one that extends from the casual end-user all the
way up to a parser developer.
When producing Turtle, if possible, stay away from Prefixes, also look
to using relative URIs which will eliminate complexity and confusion
that can arise re. Linked Deployment.
Simple rules that have helped me, eternally:
1. denote entities not of type Web Resource or Document using hash based
HTTP URIs
2. denote source documents (the docs comprised of the data being
published) using relative URIs via <>
3. stay away from prefixes (they confuse casual end-users).
BTW -- I suspect some might be wandering, isn't this N-Triples? Answer:
No, because of the use of relative HTTP URIs to denote documents, which
isn't supported by N-Triples.
A Turtle based RDF model based structured data dump from Wikidata would
be a might valuable contribution to the Linked Open Data Cloud.
