Hi Lydia, Thanks for getting back to us on this.
We would like to set up a complete replica of wikidata, including all its components, wikibase, GUI, triple store, etc. The reason we want to do this is that we want to run experiments of how we can extend wikidata with statistical data from census, FBI, NOAA, etc, which are sources that provide interesting data about entities already existing in wikidata. We need to develop new properties and classes and before we engage in a community discussion, we want to prototype it internally so we can try out different approaches. We know how to do the extensions in the triple store, i.e., write our robots/data ingestors to create triples in the triple store, but we rather write wikidata robots. One possibility could be to set up an empty Wikibase in our end, populate it with the statistical data, and then import the triples into our installation of wikidata that contains all the wikidata triples. If you have suggestions, please let us know.
