Hi, this is the first time I have used dbpedia and am running into some
problems.

 

I am trying to query a list of languages and am trying to get the
following properties:

 

Name

Rank

Foaf:Page

Speakers

 

Although all pages on Wikipedia have all of the properties I am looking
for, dbpedia does not or the properties don't make sense.

 

I am using the following sparql query:

 

 

SELECT ?lang ?name ?rank ?page ?speakers WHERE {

 

?lang ?p  <http://dbpedia.org/ontology/Language> .

 

?lang dbpedia2:name ?name .

 

?lang foaf:page ?page .

 

?lang dbpedia2:rank ?rank.

 

}

 

order  by ?rank

 

 

This finds most of what I am looking for but there a couple of
inconsistencies: in particular the rank property of the modern English
language is showing a url to another site.

 

If I use the following query to try to get the number of speakers then
the result is cut dramatically:

 

SELECT ?lang ?name ?rank ?page ?speakers WHERE {

 

?lang ?p  <http://dbpedia.org/ontology/Language> .

 

?lang dbpedia2:name ?name .

 

?lang foaf:page ?page .

 

?lang dbpedia2:rank ?rank.

 

?lang dbpedia2:speakers ?speakers.

 

 

}

 

order  by ?rank

 

 

In particular here, many languages are missing as there is no rank
property yet the Wikipedia pages show the property.

 

As I said I am new to this so am unsure whether this is to be expected
or not.

 

If it is then is there a way around this.  Basically I need to query
languages and get the properties mentioned above.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
