SPARQL endpoint for Wikidata history

This repository provides a SPARQL endpoint for Wikidata history, allowing to do queries like "count the number of humans in Wikidata in 2015" or "how many contributors have added values for the sex or gender property".

A documentation page is available on Wikidata.org.

Build Status

Developer documentation

To setup a working endpoint do:

  • Compile the Java program mvn package
  • Download the Wikidata history dumps to a directory mkdir dumps && cd dumps && bash ../download_wd_history.sh. Warning: it requies around 600GB of disk.
  • Preprocess the dump to get all revision metadata and triples annotated with their insertions and deletions (takes a few days and all your CPU cores): java -server -jar target/sparql-endpoint-0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar -preprocess
  • Build database indexes: java -server -jar target/sparql-endpoint-0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar -load.
  • Start the web server java -server -classpath target/sparql-endpoint-0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar org.wikidata.history.web.Main
