I just did

$ bzcat ~/dbpedia_2012_05_31.nt.bz2 | grep 'wikiPageWikiLink' | wc

and got back zero lines.  Is it deliberate that

?s <http://dbpedia.org/ontology/wikiPageWikiLink> ?o .

triples are missing from Live?

If that's so,  that's very disappointing.  :wikiPageWikiLink is one of 
the most useful predicates in DBpedia,  particularly from the viewpoint 
of one who's merging DBpedia with some other KB and wants something to 
fill the gaps in other KBs.  It's difficult to come up with a better 
subjective importance score than

select count(*) {
    ?s :wikiPageWikiLink dbpedia:J._Edgar_Hoover .
}

I use Hoover as an example,  because DBpedia,  Freebase and other 
popular knowledge bases don't do a good job of documenting his career.  
Perhaps you could define events for cops (?s :arrested ?o) and 
bureaucrats (?) but then you've got to populate them.  Hoover,  
however,  used his power to protect his privacy,  and a real accounting 
of his notorious career would be impossible.

A historical figure as important as Hoover collects relationships with 
many other entities,  and even if they aren't precisely ontologized,  
they are captured in the page links.  This gives him a fighting chance 
to rank higher than the Foo Fighters or some other entity that secretes 
large numbers of well-formed and ill-formed bibliographic entries.

Adding these links to the public endpoints and making them available in 
Live would be a big boost for DBpedia users.
