SPARQL to persitent data

Some SPARQL queries are meaningful but heavy and overly slow. This administrator tool stores or updates the response data on LinguaLibre, within a wikipage. Stored data can then be loaded in <0.1 second. Multiple data can also be merged via a common property if any.


Federated queries

  • To query Lingualibre from Wikidata, use SERVICE <https://lingualibre.org/sparql>.
  • To query Wikidata from LinguaLibre, use SERVICE <https://query.wikidata.org/sparql>.
  • To query Commons from Lingualibre, use SERVICE <https://commons-query.wikimedia.org/sparql>.
