    Jane, Lydia and WikiDatans,

    These are great and helpful developments, which seem to be quite far
    along now.

    Jane and WikiDatans, can you point to similar helpful examples that
    would distinguish how WikiData Categories and what one can extract
    withMagnus' reasonator tool from what one can 'extract' with
    SemanticWiki from WikiData Categories?


Can everyone please stop with the "categories"? Wikidata has items and
properties. I assume you mean properties here.

As for tools to get to data,
* Reasonator [1] is for viewing a single item, and see related items
* WDQ [2] is for machine-readable querying of Wikidata; basically, what
SPARQL does on SMW
* Autolist [3] is for getting "clickable" results from WDQ, intersecting
results with Wikipedia (!) categories, and semi-automated editing

Well, and of course some items are used as classes, which might be somewhat related to "categories" (in one of their many uses). For an overview of these, see

http://tools.wmflabs.org/wikidata-exports/miga/

To find instances of a particular class, you can then use the tools Magnus already mentioned.

Cheers,

Markus
