permutans/wikidata-labels

Wikidata Labels

The name of every Wikidata item and property, in every language it has one: one row per (id, language).

Files

Files are at {language}/part-{i}-of-{n}.parquet: one folder per Wikidata language code (en, nl, fr, pt-br, ...). Each folder's rows are sorted by id across its files, in string order (Q10 comes before Q2), so a filter on id reads only the row groups whose id range can hold it.

Schema

Column	Type
id	string	Item (Q…) or property (P…) id
language	string	Language code, as in the folder name
value	string	The label

id   language  value
Q42  en        Douglas Adams
Q42  de        Douglas Adams
Q42  mul       Douglas Adams
Q5   en        human
Q5   fr        être humain
Q5   de        Mensch

Subsets

Each language is a subset named by its code, and all holds every language. en is the default.

Languages

Not every item has a label in every language: of the 74,429,805 items with a label, 48,736,354 (65.5%) have one in en.

mul is Wikidata's code for a default label, one that holds in every language, such as a person's name in the Latin alphabet. 18,921,222 items have a mul label, and 10,020,338 of them (13.5% of items with a label) have no en label, so reading en alone misses their names.

Wikidata shows a label in a language by trying, in order:

1. the language itself;
2. its fallback languages in MediaWiki (en-gb falls back to en, pt-br to pt, de-ch to de, zh-hk to zh-hant, zh-tw, zh and zh-hans, ...);
3. mul;
4. en.

The Wikidata API lists a language's fallbacks. Wikidata also converts the script between the variants of some languages (it can show a zh-hans label in zh-hant script); these tables hold each label as entered, so a label taken from a fallback variant stays in that variant's script.

To get one label per item in a language, with the language each label came from:

import json
import urllib.request

import polars as pl
from huggingface_hub import HfFileSystem

repo = "datasets/permutans/wikidata-labels"
subsets = {p["name"].rsplit("/", 1)[1] for p in HfFileSystem().ls(repo) if p["type"] == "directory"}


def fallbacks(lang: str) -> list[str]:
    url = (
        "https://www.wikidata.org/w/api.php?action=query&meta=languageinfo"
        f"&liprop=fallbacks&licode={lang}&format=json&formatversion=2"
    )
    request = urllib.request.Request(url, headers={"User-Agent": "wikidata-labels-example/0.1"})
    return json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(request))["query"]["languageinfo"][lang]["fallbacks"]


def chain(lang: str) -> list[str]:
    """The languages Wikidata tries for `lang`, in order, that have a subset here."""
    return [l for l in dict.fromkeys([lang, *fallbacks(lang), "mul", "en"]) if l in subsets]


langs = chain("de-ch")
labels = (
    pl.concat([pl.scan_parquet(f"hf://{repo}/{l}/*.parquet") for l in langs])
    .sort(pl.col("language").replace_strict(langs, range(len(langs))), maintain_order=True)
    .unique("id", keep="first", maintain_order=True)
)

The wikidata-pq tables

Six tables built from the same source by wikidata-pq, all keyed by Wikidata id:

Dataset	Rows	Split by
wikidata-labels	an item's or property's name, per language	language
wikidata-descriptions	its short description, per language	language
wikidata-aliases	its other names, per language	language
wikidata-links	its page title on each Wikimedia site	site
wikidata-claims	its statements	not split
wikidata-claims_labels	names of the properties, items and units its statements refer to, per language	language

Source and license

Built from philippesaade/wikidata, a Parquet copy of the Wikidata dump with one JSON-valued row per item or property, by Jonathan Fraine and Philippe Saadé at Wikimedia Deutschland. Wikidata is released under CC0, and so are these tables.
