wikiframeVG: Wikiframe Visual Graph

Introduction

Welcome to wikiframeVG (Wikiframe Visual Graph), an open-source community initiative and tool aimed to help Wikidata editors and users explore knowledge generated from organized Wikidata sprints. wikiframeVG adopts a community driven, SPARQL template-based approach towards Wikidata graph exploration.

The application interacts with Wikidata's SPARQL query service and provides users with point-and-click tools to search and filter information. No SPARQL or other coding knowledge will be required to retrieve data linked across the Wikidata knowledge graph.

Try out WikiframeVG at https://wikiframe.library.unlv.edu .
