Dear all, I've only recently started working with dbpedia as a research resource, so I apologize in advance if I'm asking a silly question with an obvious answer. Dbpedia is a wonderful resource, a huge thanks to all of you on the list who are putting hard work into it.
It seems to me that there was a recent change to dbpedia that caused a good chunk of information I've been working with to go missing. I've been working with the geographical locations of military conflicts over the past few months, stitching together a dataset from dbpedia triples that linked several thousand battles to their locations via the georss:point predicate. I started rebuilding this dataset this week and it seems that much of that information I saw before is missing. To illustrate, the following query to the SPARQL endpoint at http://dbpedia.org/sparql produces only 11 hits: select COUNT(?battle) as ?count where { ?battle rdf:type dbo:MilitaryConflict . ?battle georss:point ?location . } Just to make sure I wasn't going crazy I decided to do essentially the same query to the dbpedia live SPARQL endpoint (http://live.dbpedia.org/sparql): select COUNT(?battle) as ?count where { ?battle rdf:type dbpedia-owl:MilitaryConflict . ?battle georss:point ?location . } This returns 4225 hits, which is more reminiscent of the amount of results I got working with non-live dbpedia a few months ago. So, a few months ago, vanilla dbpedia gave me several thousand results, and dbpedia live right now does the same, but as of recently dbpedia vanilla only returns 11 results. Any reason that this may be the case? Perhaps I'm missing something quite simple? I appreciate any feed back.
