With more thinking and further conversations on this topic, I'm now wondering
if we not actually want to make Entity Schemas available through specifically
**`wbsearchentities`**, that is, a call like
`api.php?action=wbsearchentities&type=entityschema&search=human`.
From my point of view, this would have the following advantages:
- Consistent behavior for Semantic Entities on Wikidata (and other
Wikibase+EntitySchema installations): //all// Semantic Entities can be searched
through a //single// endpoint,
- This seems to me to be much more conceptually sensible than searching
just almost all of the Semantic Entities through one endpoint, and an extra
special endpoint for the Semantic Entities of type EntitySchema
- That consistent behavior will have the benefit/consequence that our
frontends that are designed to work with Semantic Entities will only need minor
adjustments to also work with the new Semantic Entities of type EntitySchema
- It would also have the benefit/consequence that 3rd party tools like
OpenRefine or quickstatements would likely need only relatively minor
adjustment for supporting search for another type of Semantic Entity
