Hello!
I recently found your very interesting projects as I was looking for semantically rich dumps of Wiktionary, and I wanted to tell you about my use cases.
I work for the Semantic Web Company (we are also partners in the LOD2 project) and we have a term and phrase extractor, which we want to improve by enriching the extraction model with their various grammatical forms of the model's terms.
So additions we are most interested in are declinations, tenses
hm, those are not our primary interest yet, and a problem could be that the way grammatically derived forms are listed is not standardized, sometimes there is a special templates used (latin, for example "manus": {{la-decl-4th|man}} ) sometimes they are on special Pages (for example in german wiktionary the page "winken_(Konjugation)"). most pages dont explicity list such forms. they could be generated... it could be hard to be complete there.
and synonyms for German and English.
yes that is planned
Another use case would be to use Wiktionary data to suggest translations of controlled terms in a thesaurus. So the available translations would be great to have in RDF, too.
that is one of our next targets.
Best regards, Thomas
