Those data types are provided by separate extensions:

  * Math
    <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Math>
    provides /math/
  * WikibaseLexeme
    <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Extension:WikibaseLexeme>
    provides /wikibase-lexeme/, /wikibase-sense/ and /wikibase-form/
  * Score
    <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Extension:Score>
    provides /musical-notation/

To use these types, you’ll need to find some way to install those
extensions. (I’m not familiar enough with wikibase-docker to know how.)

Cheers,
