Another thing I see lacking here is the Common Concept itself is NOT in Wikidata currently.
There is no entity that matches "nobel prize winner" currently. Perhaps one should be created? Anyways, I have started to help with a simple ShEx for validation that can be edited by all to help with Aidan's problem. (feel free to get in there, learn, and improve it, and check the entities from your query or queries you have, and add more rules or change them) https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/EntitySchema:E126 Thad https://www.linkedin.com/in/thadguidry/ On Sat, Sep 28, 2019 at 9:46 AM Thad Guidry <thadgui...@gmail.com> wrote: > Furthermore, > > I think the usage of ShEx > <https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_ShEx/How_to_get_started%3F>(which > helps folks make Schema and Violation rules) could be beneficial here for > the community. > What is lacking are improvements on the Wikidata UI to make Schema editing > and display of Violations to play a much more important role. > > I personally feel this is the 1 BIG THING that is holding back the Quality > Factor on Wikidata that so many other discussions have risen up recently. > Schema was a 1st Class Citizen in Freebase.
