Hi Amir! We had a call today with the dbPedia folks, about exactly this topic! The dbPedia mapping wiki[1] has this information, at least to some extent. Let's say you are looking at {{Cricketer Infobox}} on en. You can look out the DBPedia mappings for the template parameters on their mapping page[2]. There you can see that the "country" parameter maps to the "country" proeprty in the dbpedia ontology[2], which in turn uses owl:equivalentProperty to cross-link P17[4]. I assume this info is also available in machine readable form somewhere, but I don't know where offhand. Today we discussed that this mapping should also be available in the opposite direction: on Wikidata, you can use P1628 ("equivalent property") to cross-reference the dbPedia ontology. I just added this info to the country property. let me know if this helps :) -- daniel [1] http://mappings.dbpedia.org/index.php/ [2] http://mappings.dbpedia.org/index.php/Mapping_en:Cricketer_Infobox [3] http://mappings.dbpedia.org/index.php/OntologyProperty:Country [4] https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P17 -- Daniel Kinzler Senior Software Developer Wikimedia Deutschland Gesellschaft zur Förderung Freien Wissens e.V. _______________________________________________ Wikidata-l mailing list Wikidata-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikidata-l
