Dear Sir,
I thank you for your efforts. When dealing with biomedical taxonomic statements 
jn Wikidata, we found similar deficiencies. I have already decided to write a 
paper about the biomedical taxonomy of Wikidata and how to adjust it. I will be 
honoured if you can be the first author of the work. You have already extracted 
the taxonomic statements. So, you can easily filter the biomedical ones. This 
work has already been done for other taxonomies such as SNOMED-CT 
(https://scholar.google.ca/citations?user=UsG8QFwAAAAJ&hl=fr&oi=sra, 
https://scholar.google.ca/citations?user=c4LlYxsAAAAJ&hl=fr&oi=sra, 
https://scholar.google.ca/citations?user=jVLGHGQAAAAJ&hl=fr&oi=sra, 
https://scholar.google.ca/citations?user=fBAvwi4AAAAJ&hl=fr&oi=sra). I will be 
available online for further discussion if you agree to work with our team. 
This will be simple.
Yours Sincerely,

Objet : Re: [Wikidata] instance of, subclass of, oh my

Thanks Jan, I will pursue the badminton discussion on the talk page.

Hello Gabriel,

I agree with you about the badminton tournaments, that seems odd. It appears to 
already be a discussion about that on the talk page of the only participant in 
the badminton project: 
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User_talk:Florentyna#subclass_of:_badminton_tournament

Perhaps it is best to continue the discussion there?

Hello everyone,

I was playing around with a recent wikidata dump and extracted the items that 
"looked" like classes based on the definition here,

https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_Ontology/Classes

Specifically, an item is a class-item if any of the following are true,
  * the item is the value of a P31 ("instance of") statement
  * the item has a P279 ("subclass of") statement (subclass)
  * the item is the value of a P279 ("subclass of") statement (superclass)

Once I extracted all items that met these criteria (2,399,621 items from 
wikidata-20190603-all.json.bz2) I started examining the results.  One of the 
things I found slightly surprising is that there are about 23k badminton events 
that are classes b/c they have "subclass of 
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q13357858"; statements.  SPARQL query below.

https://query.wikidata.org/#SELECT%20%3Fitem%20%3FitemLabel%20%0AWHERE%20%0A%7B%0A%20%20%3Fitem%20wdt%3AP31%20wd%3AQ57733494.%0A%20%20%3Fitem%20wdt%3AP279%20wd%3AQ13357858.%0A%20%20SERVICE%20wikibase%3Alabel%20%7B%20bd%3AserviceParam%20wikibase%3Alanguage%20%22%5BAUTO_LANGUAGE%5D%2Cen%22.%20%7D%0A%7D

It also looks like there is a badminton project page,
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Category:WikiProject_Badminton
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_Badminton/Subclass


I'd like to remove these statements as it seems that a particular instance of a 
badminton tournament
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q121940
is not a class.

It seems that this pattern is also in place for about 1,000,000 items which are 
instance of gene (e.g. https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q40108).

I had a couple questions for the mailing list,

 1) do folks know if there is an active group working on wikidata ontology
 2) i've read a few messages about shape expressions.  would it be worthwhile 
to setup a shape expression that prevents most items from having both "instance 
of" and "subclass of" statements?
 3) if these entries are generated by bots, what is the best way to get in 
touch with the owner, their user talk page?

I am probably missing a lot of information about what has been done so far in 
the community, but I'm happy to read anything someone points me towards.

best,
-Gabriel
