 +
In the project to create the ConferenceCorpus as part of the ConfIDent project Scientific Event / Proceedings data needed to be imported
 +
from the german national libraries GND Dataset.
 +
The query needed to be modified after extensive analysis of the data. The schema definition as specified in the GND ontology alone was not sufficient.

This naive approach will lead to more results for Step 3 (e.g. 7730) than for step 2 (e.g. 7695) which is a surprise for most novices since this effect would not happen with a similar SQL query <source lang='SQL'>SELECT short_name,country,title from academic_conference</source>

try Beer! If you set min% to 40 and then Generate the SPARQL Query the naive query is something like:

  }

Info

The columns of the truly tabular tool at http://wikidata.bitplan.com are explained at Truly Tabular RDF/Info

Motivation

In the project to create the ConferenceCorpus as part of the ConfIDent project Scientific Event / Proceedings data needed to be imported from the german national libraries GND Dataset. The query needed to be modified after extensive analysis of the data. The schema definition as specified in the GND ontology alone was not sufficient. Truly Tabular RDF/GND

Querying tabular data from Wikidata

Game of Thrones / Jon Snow Example

A starting point for analyzing the data in a triplestore such as wikidata might be a single item of interest such as the 160px-Game_of_Thrones_2011_logo.svg.png character Jon Snow instance ofGame of thrones character

GOTCountQuery

SPARQL Query to count Game of Thrones character items in Wikidata 

SELECT (COUNT(DISTINCT ?item) AS ?count) WHERE 
{
  # Q20086263:Game of Thrones character
  ?item wdt:P31 wd:Q20086263;
}

try it! The above SPARQL query will let us know the total amount of similar items we might find in Wikidata. which is 117 at the time of writing this work.

A quite natural idea is to create a query now to get a table of all Game of thrones characters with columns for the most interesting aspects.

As a starting point we might use the Wikidata Query Service and select the sample "Cats" and refine it for our purposes with some properties we find on Jon Snows page to create a "naive" query:

NaiveGOTQuery1

# Game of Thrones Characters
SELECT
  ?item ?itemLabel
  ?genderLabel
  ?countryLabel
  ?placeOfBirthLabel
  ?placeOfDeathLabel
WHERE
{
  ?item wdt:P31 wd:Q20086263. # must be a game of thrones character
  ?item wdt:P21 ?gender.
  ?item wdt:P27 ?country.
  ?item wdt:P19 ?placeOfBirth.
  ?item wdt:P20 ?placeOfDeath.
  SERVICE wikibase:label { bd:serviceParam wikibase:language "en". }
}

try it!

http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q28468107 Doran Martell male Seven Kingdoms Sunspear Dorne
http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q55433701 Jojen Reed male Seven Kingdoms Greywater Watch Beyond the Wall

The result of this query is nicely tabular and can be exported to CSV format to be imported to our favorite relational database or spreadsheet - but it does not contain 117 entries any more but only 28. SPARQL queries will not return "NULL" values as our relational database query language SQL would. The query needs to be amended with the "OPTIONAL" keyword as shown below.

NaiveGOTQuery2

Naive Game of Thrones Character tabular query with OPTIONAL 

# Game of Thrones Characters
SELECT
  ?item ?itemLabel
  ?genderLabel
  ?countryLabel
  ?placeOfBirthLabel
  ?placeOfDeathLabel
WHERE
{
  ?item wdt:P31 wd:Q20086263. # must be a game of thrones character
  OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P21 ?gender}.
  OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P27 ?country}.
  OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P19 ?placeOfBirth}.
  OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P20 ?placeOfDeath}.
  SERVICE wikibase:label { bd:serviceParam wikibase:language "en". }
}

try it!

This table looks promising it has 117 entries and the columns are filled as expected.

The real surprise for a novice will be the result of the Query below when three more columns have been added. All over sudden the query result has 304 rows for our 117 characters. There are duplicate rows for each character and strange combinations of entries. A notorious example seems to be Jorah Mormont having 8 different values for the "occupation" column.

NaiveGOTQuery3

Naive Game of Thrones Character tabular query with duplicate rows for some characters 

# Game of Thrones Characters
SELECT
  ?item ?itemLabel
  ?genderLabel
  ?countryLabel
  ?placeOfBirthLabel
  ?placeOfDeathLabel
  ?killedByLabel
  ?familyLabel
  ?occupationLabel
WHERE
{
  ?item wdt:P31 wd:Q20086263. # must be a game of thrones character
  OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P21 ?gender}.
  OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P27 ?country}.
  OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P19 ?placeOfBirth}.
  OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P20 ?placeOfDeath}.
  OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P157 ?killedBy}.
  OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P53 ?family}.
  OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P106 ?occupation}.
  SERVICE wikibase:label { bd:serviceParam wikibase:language "en". }
}

try it!

Naive SPARQL Query

  1. Start with a wikidata item your are intested in e.g. International Semantic Web Conference ISWC 2022
  2. use the instance of property to find similar items of the same class academic conference
  3. straight-forward select further properties by adding statements similar to 
    OPTIONAL { ?conference wdt:P1813 ?short_name }
    to the WHERE clause.
    1. P1813 short name
    2. P17 country
    3. P1476 title

This naive approach will lead to more results for Step 3 (e.g. 7730) than for step 2 (e.g. 7695) which is a surprise for most novices since this effect would not happen with a similar SQL query 

SELECT short_name,country,title from academic_conference

Result of Step #2

  ?conference wdt:P31 wd:Q2020153.
  # label
  ?conference rdfs:label ?conferenceLabel filter (lang(?conferenceLabel) = "en").
}

try it!
