Hi Radhika,
Since you read Jona's thesis you could experiment with the extraction
process,
maybe try to configure it for a language you know that does not already
exists in the repo, this is the best warm-up task I guess :).
You can use the precompiled version (
https://github.com/dbpedia/dbpedia-wiktionary)
or try from source code (
https://github.com/dbpedia/extraction-framework/tree/master/wiktionary).
Note that what we need on this case is a GUI for non-expert users to
configure the different Wikitionary language editions (GUI -> xml config).
So, Scala would be nice but is not a prerequisite in this idea.
Cheers,
Dimitris
