This page describes the RDF dump and export format produced by Wikidata and used for export and indexing purposes. Note that while it is close to the format used by the Wikidata Toolkit, it is not the same code and not the same format. While we strive to keep divergence to a minimum, there may be differences, and one should use documentation only for the format that is actually being consumed.

Wikibase indexing
RDF export for wikibase indexing
|
This document describes the RDF dump as it can be downloaded from the Wikimedia dump source, and while it can be used to create queries for the Wikidata Query Service, the service can have small differences in how the data there look like. See the WDQS data differences chapter for the full list.
The canonical URI of the Wikibase RDF ontology is http://wikiba.se/ontology. The current version can be found at http://wikiba.se/ontology-1.0.owl.
Changes to the RDF mapping are subject to the Stable Interface Policy.
Data model
The RDF format is a binding for the Wikibase data model and it represents an export format for it. That means, in particular, that if the data model changes, the export format will be changed accordingly. This document will be updated for such changes. The following description assumes familiarity with the data model and the terminology used.
This RDF binding is based on the one designed for the Wikidata Toolkit by Denny Vrandecic and Markus Krötzsch, see https://web.archive.org/web/20190313052004/http://korrekt.org/papers/Wikidata-RDF-export-2014.pdf.
The following description uses prefixes to describe the IRIs of the RDF resources mentioned. See the Prefixes chapter for the full description. All examples below are given in the Turtle format.
Versions
The version of the data model is specified by schema:softwareVersion predicate of the schema:Dataset node, which is either dump node for the dump or entity data node (wdata:) for single entity page.
Released versions:
| Version | Description |
|---|---|
| 0.0.1 | Initial version. |
| 0.0.2 | Changed WKT coordinate order (T130049) |
| 0.0.3 | Added page props option to wdata: (T129046)
|
| 0.0.4 | Added unit conversion & normalisation support (T117031) |
| 0.0.5 | Added quantities without bounds. (T115269) |
| 0.1.0 | Changed link encoding (T131960) |
| 1.0.0 | Removed -beta from the ontology prefix (T112127). The RDF mapping is now considered stable.
|
Header
For the RDF dump, there is the header node wikibase:Dump containing information about the license, the software version of the generator and the date the data was produced.
In single-entity export, this data is attached to the data node (see below).
Example header:
wikibase:Dump a schema:Dataset ;
cc:license <http://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/> ;
schema:softwareVersion "1.0.1" ;
schema:dateModified "2015-03-21T06:03:55Z"^^xsd:dateTime .
cc:license- specifies the IRI of the license that applies to the whole RDF document.schema:softwareVersion- specifies which version of the dump format is being used (currently1.0.0), will be updated when format changes, once the format is out of the beta period. The version updates will be done along the lines of semantic versioning, with major changes being BC breaking ones, minor being major BC-compatible changes and patch part changes on minor tweaks.schema:dateModified- specifies the date of the dump's data validity. Some data that is contained in a dump may be more recent than this date, but it is guaranteed that no data in the dump is older than this date. The date should be close to the time of the oldest data contained in the dump, but for technical reasons may not be exactly the same as the time of the oldest data in the dump.
Entity representation
The entity is described in two nodes - data node and entity node.
For entity Q1, data node is wdata:Q1 and entity node is wd:Q1.
Data node describes the metadata about the entity record in the Wikibase - i.e. data which are not part of the entity's information but instead describe the status of the entity inside Wikibase.
It has type of schema:Dataset and contains the following metadata:
- Information about the entity revision (
schema:version) – this is a counter that increases with each modification of the entity data - Last modification time of the entity data (
schema:dateModified) – as anxsd:dateTimetimestamp - Link to the entity node with
schema:aboutpredicate
Przykład:
wdata:Q2 schema:version "59"^^xsd:integer ;
schema:dateModified "2015-03-18T22:38:36Z"^^xsd:dateTime ;
a schema:Dataset ;
schema:about wd:Q2 .
Entity node describes the actual entity data and has type wikibase:Item or wikibase:Property depending on the kind of entity.
Other entity types can be introduced in the future.
Entity description includes the following:
- Entity labels - the main name of the entity. Labels are defined as
schema:name,rdfs:labelandskos:prefLabelpredicates with objects being language-tagged string literals. - Entity aliases - the secondary names of the entity. Aliases are defined as
skos:altLabelpredicates with objects being language-tagged string literals. - Entity description - the longer description of the entity. Defined as
schema:descriptionpredicates with objects being language-tagged string literals. - Truthy statements (see below)
- Predicates linking it to full statements
Example of the entity definition:
wd:Q3 a wikibase:Item ;
rdfs:label "The Universe"@en ;
skos:prefLabel "The Universe"@en ;
schema:name "The Universe"@en ;
schema:description "The Universe is big"@en ;
skos:altLabel "everything"@en ;
wdt:P2 wd:Q3 ;
wdt:P7 "value1", "value2" ;
p:P2 wds:Q3-4cc1f2d1-490e-c9c7-4560-46c3cce05bb7 ;
p:P7 wds:Q3-24bf3704-4c5d-083a-9b59-1881f82b6b37,
wds:Q3-45abf5ca-4ebf-eb52-ca26-811152eb067c .
Page properties
Entity node can also carry additional information about the entity, such as number of links or statements.
The data is sourced from page properties and can be specified in config file. Na przykład:
wdata:Q42 a schema:Dataset ;
schema:about wd:Q42 ;
wikibase:statements "275"^^xsd:integer ;
wikibase:identifiers "206"^^xsd:integer ;
wikibase:sitelinks "116"^^xsd:integer .
wikibase:statements specifies how many statements this entity has, wikibase:identifiers specifiers the number of statements with External Id values, and wikibase:sitelinks specifies the number of sitelinks.
Additional statements can be introduced in the future.
Items
Entities that represent items have the common entity data as described above, plus can have sitelinks attached to them, as described below.
Properties
Entities that represent properties additionally feature the property type using wikibase:propertyType predicate.
The object of the predicate is the property type described in Value representation below, with wikibase: prefix and each word capitalised, with no separators.
I.e., wikibase-item becomes wikibase:WikibaseItem.
Each property is also linked to the predicates that are derived from it. Przykład:
wd:P22 a wikibase:Property ;
rdfs:label "Item property"@en ;
wikibase:propertyType wikibase:WikibaseItem ;
wikibase:directClaim wdt:P22 ;
wikibase:claim p:P22 ;
wikibase:statementProperty ps:P22 ;
wikibase:statementValue psv:P22 ;
wikibase:qualifier pq:P22 ;
wikibase:qualifierValue pqv:P22 ;
wikibase:reference pr:P22 ;
wikibase:referenceValue prv:P22 ;
wikibase:novalue wdno:P22 .
The property predicates also have type definitions:
prv:P22 a owl:ObjectProperty .
wdt:P22 a owl:DatatypeProperty .
The type depends on the type of the original property - whether its value is literal (DatatypeProperty) or IRI (ObjectProperty).
However, p:, psv: , pqv: and prv: predicates would always be owl:ObjectProperty.
Note that wdno:P22 mentioned above is not a predicate, unlike others, but a class. See the full description of it in Novalue section.

Statement types
The RDF format represents statements in two forms - truthy and full statements.
Truthy statements
Truthy statements represent statements that have the best non-deprecated rank for a given property.
Namely, if there is a preferred statement for property P2, then only preferred statements for P2 will be considered truthy.
Otherwise, all normal-rank statements for P2 are considered truthy.
Truthy statement predicates have the prefix wdt: with the property name (e.g. wdt:P2) and the object is the simple value (see below) for the statement.
The qualifiers are ignored.
If the value has simple value normalisation (currently true only for external ID), normalised value is listed under wdtn: prefix, e.g. wdtn:P2.
Full statements
Full statements represent all data about the statement in the system.
Full statement is represented as separate node, with prefix wds: with the id of the statement (e.g. wds:Q3-4cc1f2d1-490e-c9c7-4560-46c3cce05bb7).
There is no guaranteed format or meaning to the statement id.
The statements are linked to the entity with the predicate with prefix p: and the name of the property (e.g. p:P2).
Statement representation
 Uwaga: | It is possible that a statement refers to a property or item that no longer exists. Therefore you should not assume the predicates and objects are always defined. |
The statement node represents a single statement about the entity.
It has type wikibase:Statement.
The statement can contain the rank, the simple value (see below) of the statement, the link to the full value, the qualifiers and the references.
The statement rank is represented by the predicate wikibase:rank and the object being one of:wikibase:NormalRank , wikibase:PreferredRank, wikibase:DeprecatedRank.
The statement that has the best rank for the property (i.e., preferred if there are any preferred statements in the property, otherwise normal) is also has type of wikibase:BestRank.
The simple value is represented by the predicate with prefix ps: and the name of the property (e.g. ps:P2) and the object being the simple value.
The full value (if required by the type) is represented by the predicate with prefix psv: (e.g. psv:P2) and the object being the full value node.
The statement always has no more than one value, but can have multiple qualifiers and references.
Qualifiers
The qualifiers are represented by predicates with prefix pq: and the name of the property (e.g. pq:P2) and the object being the simple value of the qualifier.
The full value (if required by the type) is represented by the predicate with prefix pqv: (e.g. pqv:P2) and the object being the full value node.
Przypisy
References are represented by the predicate prov:wasDerivedFrom with the object being the reference node (see below).
Example of the statement:
wds:Q3-24bf3704-4c5d-083a-9b59-1881f82b6b37 a wikibase:Statement, wikibase:BestRank ;
ps:P2 wd:Q3 ;
wikibase:rank wikibase:PreferredRank ;
pq:P8 "-13000000000-01-01T00:00:00Z"^^xsd:dateTime ;
pqv:P8 wdv:382603eaa501e15688076291fc47ae54 ;
prov:wasDerivedFrom wdref:87d0dc1c7847f19ac0f19be978015dfb202cf59a,
wdref:d95dde070543a0e0115c8d5061fce6754bb82280 .
Reference representation
References represent provenance information about statements.
Reference is represented as node, with prefix wdref: and the local name being the hash derived from the reference contents (e.g. wdref:d95dde070543a0e0115c8d5061fce6754bb82280).
The exact value of the hash is not guaranteed beyond the fact that the same references (i.e. ones with identical content) will generate the same hash, and the different one will generate the different one.
The same reference (i.e. reference having the same properties with the same values) will be usually represented with single node, though duplicate reference nodes are possible in the data.
The type of the node is a wikibase:Reference.
The reference values are represented the same as statement values, with simple values using predicates with pr: prefix (e.g. pr:P2) and full values with prefix prv: (e.g. prv:P2) and the object being the full value node.
Unlike statements, references can have any number of values.
Example of the reference node:
wdref:d95dde070543a0e0115c8d5061fce6754bb82280 a wikibase:Reference ;
pr:P7 "Some data" ;
pr:P8 "1976-01-12T00:00:00Z"^^xsd:dateTime ;
prv:P8 wdv:b74072c03a5ced412a336ff213d69ef1 .
Value representation
In the RDF format, the values are represented as two forms - simple value and full value. Simple value is always a literal or IRI, and is used as direct value that is convenient to search, index and match. The full value contains additional information about the value, such as ranges, precision, calendar used, etc. Note that while for many queries simple values will be enough, for other, more complex values, only full values will be adequate.
If the statement has a value (i.e. is not set to novalue) then the simple value will always be present.
Full values are represented as nodes having prefix wdv: and the local name being the hash of the value contents (e.g. wdv:382603eaa501e15688076291fc47ae54).
There is no guarantee of the value of the hash except for the fact that different values will be represented by different hashes, and same value mentioned in different places will have the same hash.
Value node has type wikibase:Value.
The content of the node is defined by the type of the value (see below).
Example of the value node:
wdv:b74072c03a5ced412a336ff213d69ef1 a wikibase:TimeValue ;
wikibase:timeValue "+1976-01-12T00:00:00Z"^^xsd:dateTime ;
wikibase:timePrecision "11"^^xsd:integer ;
wikibase:timeTimezone "0"^^xsd:integer ;
wikibase:timeCalendarModel <http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q1985727> .
The following describes the handling of each kind of value, depending on the type of the value and the type of the property. Note that not all aspects of the data model are represented in RDF currently, some aspects that are currently unused (such as units or before/after values for dates) are omitted since they currently do not carry any useful information. This may change in the future if/when these aspects come into use by Wikidata.
String
Strings have value type string and property type string.
String is represented as a string literal. Strings only have simple value.
Commons media
Media on commons: have value type string and property type commonsMedia.
Commons media is represented as an IRI with the full Commons resource URL, derived from the Commons filename in the underlying data item.
Np.: <http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:FilePath/Universe%20Photo.svg>.
It has only simple value.
URL
URL values have value type string and property type url.
URL is represented as a an IRI matching the URL string (e.g. <http://www.wikidata.org/>).
It has only simple value.
External ID
External ID values have value type string and property type external-id.
They are represented by a string literal.
It has only simple value.
If the property has a formatter URI for RDF configured (on Wikidata: formatter URI for RDF resource (P1921)), the RDF will also have normalised value, e.g.:
wd:Q123 wdt:P234 "External-ID" ;
wdtn:P234 <http://external.example.com/reference/External-ID>
Wikibase Entity ID
Wikibase Entity ID values have value type wikibase-entityid and property type wikibase-item.
The entity is represented by its IRI, e.g. wd:Q2.
It has only simple value.
Monolingual text
Monolingual text values have value type monolingualtext and property type monolingualtext.
The text is represented as a string literal with language tag. It has only simple value.
Globe coordinate
Coordinate text values have value type globecoordinate and property type globe-coordinate.
The simple value of the coordinate is the WKT string with the coordinates, with type geo:wktLiteral, e.g.: "Point(35.3 12.93)"^^geo:wktLiteral.
The order of the coordinates in WKT is longitude, latitude (since format version 0.0.2).
The full value has latitude, longitude and precision as double, and the globe as IRI.
Przykład:
wdv:a10564107110b2d5739b8fe235cddf73 a wikibase:GlobecoordinateValue ;
wikibase:geoLatitude "12.933333333333"^^xsd:double ;
wikibase:geoLongitude "35.3"^^xsd:double ;
wikibase:geoPrecision "0.000277778"^^xsd:double ;
wikibase:geoGlobe <http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q2> .
Quantity
Quantity values have value type quantity and property type quantity.
The simple value of the quantity is the specified amount, as a decimal literal.
The full value includes amount, unit URI (the default for unit-less values being http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q199), and optionally upper and lower bound. If no upper and lower bound are given, the uncertainty of the quantity is undefined. Exact values are represented by quantities that have the same value for amount, upper bound and lower bound.
Przykład:
wdv:cb213eea7a0b90d1d7f65c6eabfab9da a wikibase:QuantityValue ;
wikibase:quantityAmount "+123"^^xsd:decimal ;
wikibase:quantityUpperBound "+124"^^xsd:decimal ;
wikibase:quantityLowerBound "+122"^^xsd:decimal ;
wikibase:quantityUnit <http://www.wikimedia.org/entity/Q199> .
Time
Time values have value type time and property type time.
The simple value of the time value is either datetime value of type xsd:dateTime, if the value can be converted to Gregorian date in ISO format, or a string as represented in the database, if not.
The xsd:dateTime dates follow XSD 1.1 standard, which uses the proleptic Gregorian calendar, and represents the year 1 BCE as +0000.
This is in contrast the JSON representation of Julian and Gregorian dates, which follows the traditional year numbering, representing the year 1 BCE as -0001.
The full value includes the simple value above under wikibase:timeValue, precision and timezone as integers and calendar model as IRI.
Note that the calendar model is the original values calendar model even if wikibase:timeValue was converted to Gregorian.
Przykład:
wdv:85374678f22bda99efb44a5617d76e51 a wikibase:Time ;
wikibase:timeValue "+1948-04-12T00:00:00Z"^^xsd:dateTime ;
wikibase:timePrecision "11"^^xsd:integer ;
wikibase:timeTimezone "0"^^xsd:integer ;
wikibase:timeCalendarModel <http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q1985727> .
Normalised values
Some values can be represented in several forms, depending on the purpose. For example, length can be expressed in different units - feet, inches, meters, miles, etc. In order to provide means to unify these forms and thus make data more friendly for automatic processing, the normalised values are introduced, which represent diverse data in a unified way.
Right now, the only value normalisation that is supported is converting units for quantities into base units - e.g. length to meters. In the future, more units and more normalisations may be added, which will be documented here. The conversion table is available on the Mediawiki gerrit if needed.
The only normalised simple values are external IDs (see below).
Normalised quantity
Normalised quantity values are value nodes that are parallel to the original data nodes but represented in base units.
They are connected to their parent nodes by predicates with prefix having "v" replaced with "n" - i.e. psn:, prn: and pqn:, for example:
wds:Q3-24bf3704-4c5d-083a-9b59-1881f82b6b37 a wikibase:Statement, wikibase:BestRank ;
ps:P8 "123"^^xsd:decimal ;
psv:P8 wdv:382603eaa501e15688076291fc47ae54 ;
psn:P8 wdv:85374998f22bda54efb44a5617d76e51 .
Original quantity value is connected to the normalised value by wikibase:quantityNormalized predicate:
wdv:382603eaa501e15688076291fc47ae54 a wikibase:QuantityValue ;
wikibase:quantityAmount "+123"^^xsd:decimal ;
wikibase:quantityUpperBound "+124"^^xsd:decimal ;
wikibase:quantityLowerBound "+122"^^xsd:decimal ;
wikibase:quantityUnit <http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q218593> ;
wikibase:quantityNormalized wdv:85374998f22bda54efb44a5617d76e51.
The normalised value has wikibase:quantityNormalized pointing to itself.
If the value is already normalised - i.e. is expressed in base units - then both "v" and "n" predicates point to the same value, and wikibase:quantityNormalized for this value points to itself.
Quantities with no units or with units that are not normalisable (have no base unit they can be reduced to) do not have normalised predicates and normalised values and do not include wikibase:quantityNormalized.
The recommendation is to have no more than one base unit per property. Base units depend on Wikibase configuration and usually are chosen to represent universally accepted standard units, such as SI units.
Normalised External ID
For external IDs, normalisation converts string value to URL, if the URL formatter for that purpose is defined in property data (via canonicalUriProperty setting), then the normalised value will be listed as wdtn: value for truthy values, and as normalised value for the statements in psn:, prn: and pqn: predicates, depending on the context where the value appears.
Special values
Wikibase data model has two special kinds of snaks - PropertySomeValueSnak, specifying a value that exists but whose identity or value is unknown, and PropertyNoValueSnak, specifying that a value does not exist.
Somevalue
Unknown value is represented as RDF blank node in both simplified and full statements:
wd:Q3 a wikibase:Item, wdt:P2 _:genid1 .
wds:Q3-45abf5ca-4ebf-eb52-ca26-811152eb067c a wikibase:Statement ;
ps:P2 _:genid2 ;
wikibase:rank wikibase:NormalRank .
Novalue
Novalue is represented not by a regular value but as a class of the entity or statement or reference, with prefix wdno: and the name of the property.
Przykład:
wd:Q3 a wikibase:Item, wdno:P7 .
wds:Q3-45abf5ca-4ebf-eb52-ca26-811152eb777c a wikibase:Statement, wdno:P7 ;
wikibase:rank wikibase:NormalRank .
The entity has a wdno: class if it has a truthy novalue statement for that property.
Novalue in the main snak or qualifiers of a statement corresponds to a wdno: class on the statement node, and novalue in a reference snak corresponds to a wdno: class on the reference node.
The classes for wdno: are defined as follows:
wdno:P2 a owl:Class ;
owl:complementOf _:genid1 .
_:genid1 a owl:Restriction ;
owl:onProperty wdt:P2 ;
owl:someValuesFrom owl:Thing .
Sitelinks
The links are represented as set of predicates describing the link URL.
The type of the node is schema:Article and it linked with the entity via schema:about predicate.
Badges are described with wikibase:badge predicates.
schema:name predicate holds the plain-text name of the article, in the language of the linked wiki.
Przykład:
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duck> a schema:Article ;
schema:about wd:Q3 ;
schema:inLanguage "en" ;
schema:isPartOf <https://en.wikipedia.org/> ;
schema:name "Duck"@en ;
wikibase:badge wd:Q5 .
<https://en.wikipedia.org/> wikibase:wikiGroup "wikipedia" .
The subject URL is composed from the language site prefix and the article name, URL-encoded according to RFC 3986, e.g.:
<https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A3%D1%82%D0%BA%D0%B0>
More specifically, encoding used is as follows:
- Normalise the title by replacing spaces with underscores (
_). - Apply wfUrlencode() function, which percent-encodes all non-alphanumeric characters except "
;:@$!*(),/-_~".
Redirects
Redirected entities are implemented as owl:sameAs predicates, for example if Q6 redirects to Q1, the dump would be:
wd:Q6 owl:sameAs wd:Q1 .
Prefixes used
The prefixes are used in RDF formats that allow short prefixes (such as Turtle and RDF). For other formats, the full URL is used.
All prefix URLs that do not contain hostname are prefixed with the hostname of the generating wiki. All prefix URLs that contain hostname are fixed and do not depend on generating wiki.

WDQS data differences
The Wikidata query service has the data in the format described above, but there are small differences that can be important while writing SPARQL queries:
- Types (
aorrdf:type) forwikibase:Item,wikibase:Statement,wikibase:Reference,wikibase:Lexeme,wikibase:Form,wikibase:Senseare currently omitted for performance reasons.- To filter for items, you can use
wikibase:sitelinks []instead ofa wikibase:Item(only items have a number of sitelinks). - To filter for statements, you can use
wikibase:rank []instead ofa wikibase:Statement(only statements have a rank). - To filter for references, you can use
[] prov:wasDerivedFrom ?referenceinstead of?reference a wikibase:Reference, but note that this may return a reference more than once. (Usually, you’ll get references viaprov:wasDerivedFromfrom a statement anyway.) - To filter for senses, you can use
ontolex:LexicalSenseinstead ofwikibase:Sense. - To filter for forms, you can use
ontolex:Forminstead ofwikibase:Form.
- To filter for items, you can use
- Data nodes (
wdata:Q2) are not stored, all the information like version, revision and page props is stored in the entity node (wd:Q2) instead. This is done for performance reasons. - For labels, only
rdfs:labelis stored but notschema:nameorskos:prefLabel. Since they all have the same data, storing all three is redundant. - Redirects are recorded but currently have no additional semantics implemented.
- WDQS now uses local IRIs (Skolem IRIs) instead of blank nodes to represent somevalue. These can be tested with
FILTER wikibase:isSomeValue(?node)rather thanFILTER isBlank(?node)
See also SPARQL query examples for how to query the data using WDQS service.
