Dear all,
thank you, Dragan for the answer, yet this is nothing I can explain to "normal
users". They use the Query Service with the recommended input help and they do get
inexplicable January 1st dates (which, if the are not suspicious, they will accept as the
new knowledge).
What would speak against a a Query helper that gives data pretty much as we have entered
them?
Best,
Olaf

Hello Olaf,
The trick is to query for the property value node instead of the
proterty direct value.
Example in ArtBase:
https://tinyurl.com/yft9u5kg
On Wikidata, you can replace
"rt:" --> "wdt:"
"rp:" --> "p:"
"rpsv:" --> "psv:"
With the "property direct" ("rt") you query for just the value of the
property.
With "property" ("rp") you query for the node that holds the value,
and
more meta-information about the value.
The node contains the "node value" ("rpsv"), and that value has a
precision value ("wikibase:timePrecision"). 9 is year level, 10 is
month level, 11 is day level.
Hope that helps! :)
select ?artwork ?inception ?date_precision WHERE {
?artwork rt:P3 r:Q5 .
?artwork rt:P26 ?inception .
?artwork rp:P26 ?inception_node .
?inception_node rpsv:P26 ?inception_value .
?inception_value wikibase:timePrecision ?date_precision .
}
LIMIT 100

Dear All,
I wonder whether there is a simple way to retrieve dates with the
precision in they have been put into a wikibase.
Using SPARQL I get all years such as "1749" as "1 January 1749"
statements, no matter whether the person is born that day or not.
Should I run different searches?
Best,
Olaf
