Re: [Wikidata] An attribute for "famous person"

Apologies for the brief and combined reply but I'm on mobile. Will try and answer the DBpedia-related comments. DBpedia provides out degree metrics ( number of outgoing links from an article) and article size (in wikitext chars) directly through related extractors that can be used for ranking.

Would page props also give me the creation date of the Wikipedia page in that specific sitelink? Because this is something I needed when analyzing the data for the TED speakers challenge. When running an international writing challenge for Wikipedia it would be nice to rune a daily or weekly count

It seems to me it should be a class (a set of people), not an attribute. On Tue, Aug 2, 2016 at 1:11 PM, Ghislain ATEMEZING wrote: > Thanks Yuri. I will try to define a kind a metric for those having a number > of wikipedia entries. For example, a person with 127

Any person in wikidata is "famous" - otherwise they wouldn't be notable and therefore wouldn't be there)) If you prefer the stricter notability requirement(as used by Wikipedia), search only for those that have a wikipedia page On Aug 2, 2016 1:44 PM, "Ghislain ATEMEZING"

Re: [Wikidata] An attribute for "famous person"

Thanks Gerard, I understand your point. Of course having an item is the first key for notability. You agree that if famous in Lille, then famous in France. I've just seen this page http://www.thefamouspeople.com/ and I wonder how they make their classification. Best, Ghislain El mar., 2 ago.

Re: [Wikidata] An attribute for "famous person"

Hoi, There is not. The problem is that famous is very ambiguous. Famous in France or famous in Lille? They may be notable and that is why they have an item. Famous for a reason is possible; for instance because they won a prize. So yes and no. Thanks, GerardM On 2 August 2016 at 12:43,
