Are there are any tools currently that could do something like this:
Input: A category/class - something that hangs off subclassOf P279 relationships. For example: "gene" Q7187
Output: an interactive visual representation of the properties that are being used by the entities connected to this category entity as its members: e.g the properties used by RELN Q414043.
The interactive part would be to optionally expand the visualization to include the equivalent representation for the objects of selected properties. e.g. an expanding tree of properties for example.
I'm looking for something akin to a schema inspector for a more typical database. The reason for this request is to ease understanding and communication about data structures that go beyond single entities. In my example here, we have important information that people typically associate with the concept of 'gene', but to get to it, you need to hop through the connection between the gene and protein representations first. For example. RELN(gene) encodes reelin(protein) interacts with VLDR(protein). And this is a relatively simple example.
This would be very helpful for the molecular biology wikiproject as we work out what are likely to be increasingly complex structures of the data we are importing. I imagine such a tool could also be very useful for other groups and could also be useful for a general visual query composer.
Thoughts? thanks -Ben

I am not sure if any of this fits your needs but here are some pointers: * Wikidata query can visualize a tree for you * http://projetjourdain.org/network/index.html * talk by Markus: https://wikimania2014.wikimedia.org/wiki/Submissions/How_to_use_Wikidata:_Th... (slides are linked there) * There was also a really nice interactive visualization of Greek gods and godesses but I can't find it anymore. Anyone got a link?
Cheers Lydia
Dear Ben,
Have you checked tool-labs already?
http://tools.wmflabs.org/hay/directory/#/keyword/wikidata
Maybe you find something useful...
Best, Claudia

Thanks, The wikidata classes and properties tool is close. http://tools.wmflabs.org/wikidata-exports/miga/#_item=1340
Needs some work on how it calculates 'related properties' and perhaps some layout, but its intent is similar. Looks like the answer to the question is that there isn't anything exactly like what I asked for yet, but it that it could be assembled in a days work based on the examples in the tools dir.
Now to find some one with an extra day on their hands..
thank you! -Ben
