Knowledge Graphs (KG) are incomplete by design; they allow to merge and connect heterogeneous data despite their differences . Nevertheless , KG data producers need to ensure the best level of completeness, as far as possible. The difficulty is that they have no means to distinguish cases where incomplete entities could and should be fixed. We present a new visualisation tool: The Missing Path, to support them in identifying coherent subsets of entities that can be repaired. It relies on a map, grouping entities according to their incomplete profile. The map is coordinated with histograms and stacked charts to support interactive exploration and analysis; the summary of a subset can be compared with the one of the full collection to reveal its distinctive features. We conduct an iterative design process and evaluation with 9 Wikidata contributors. Participants gain insights and find various strategies to identify coherent subsets to be fixed.
