I’ve created a GNOME Shell extension that allows the user to search for Wikidata items directly from the shell. Currently you can search for simple things such as “Obama”, “Book”, etc. I plan on adding support for complex queries such as “the population of the earth” which would show the current population of the earth. In the future I also see this extension handle the submission of new entries or editing existing ones. Check it out here [1] if you’re interested. Pull requests are also welcome ;)

Thanks, Bahodir! Forwarding to the Wikidata mailing list so they get to see this too.

Cheers Lydia
