Hello all,
As every quarter, the Wikidata development team will host an Office Hour on
July 21st at 16:00 UTC (18:00 CEST), on the Wikidata Telegram channel
<https://t.me/joinchat/AZriqUj5UagVMHXYzfZFvA>.
This session will be a bit special because we will have a guest: Guillaume
Lederrey from WMF's Search Team, who will present what they are working on
at the moment related to the Wikidata Query service: research that they
have been doing around the …
[View More]use of the WDQS, the reasons behind the issues
that we encounter for the past months with keeping the data up to date, and
different future paths for the service.
So if you're interested in the topic, you can prepare your questions until
July 21st!
As usual, notes of the discussions will be published onwiki
<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Category:Office_hour_notes> after the
meeting.
Cheers,

Hi,
I'm looking into ways to use tabular data like
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Data:Zika-institutions-test.tab
in SPARQL queries but could not find anything on that.
My motivation here is in part coming from the time out limits, and the
basic idea here would be to split queries that typically time out into
sets of queries that do not time out and - if their results were
aggregated - would yield the results that would be expected for the
original query …
[View More]would it not time out.
The second line of motivation here is that of keeping track of how
things develop over time, which would be interesting for both content
and maintenance queries as well as usage of things like classes,
references, lexemes or properties.
I would appreciate any pointers or thoughts on the matter.
Thanks,
Daniel
