TASK DESCRIPTION
Right now there is easy way to look up
- by whom and when a given statement was last introduced (=which edit to an
item added it)
- whether some statement or statement pattern (e.g. use of a property) had
been in the version history of an item
To answer these question one has to crawl the version history and compare
revisions. The provenance information on Wikidata statements should best be
available by SPARQL and via the user interface.
A first (but not final) step could be extension of the RDF data model as
following:
?stm a wikibase:Statement .
?stm prov:generatedAtTime ?time .
?stm schema:creator ?user .
And later extend with modeling edit events as RDF resources (similar to
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SemanticHistory):
?stm prov:qualifiedGeneration ?edit.
?edit schema:creator ?user .
?edit prov:atTime ?time .
I'd suggest to at least agree on which RDF property to use to connect a
stement with the time of it's creation (e.g. `prov:generatedAtTime`) and with a
wiki account (e.g. `schema:creator` but what's the URI of a given account?),
so the data can be generated independently from version history unless it's
included in Wikibase.
I don't know yet how to handle edits on qualifiers and references. Adding or
modifying a reference could make an editor a `schema:contributor` of the
referenced statement but adding/removing a qualifier is a more contribution. Do
URIs of statement nodes in RDF stay the same if qualifiers are changed?
