SARS-CoV-2-Queries

[ en ja nl es pt ]

Introduction

Wikidata is a useful resource in the linked data network [1,2]. The Wikicite project has picked up the challenge to enter all scholarly publications (cited in Wikipedia) [3]. Inspired by Scholia [4], this electronic books collects a number of queries that we hope are useful to anyone who wants to learn more about the SARS-CoV-2 virus.

As will be clear when reading this booklet, a lot of queries take advantage of work by other, of the Wikidata:WikiProject COVID-19, of Wikicite, of the authors [5], and the selflessness efforts by many people around the world [6,7,8,9].

Knowledge graphs that specifically use data from Wikidata include the following:

Adding missing topic annotation

Because Wikidata is an open database, everyone can contribute, and one of the easiest ways to contribute, is annotate articles in Wikidata with ‘main subjects’. The content of the Literature chapter very much depends on this. If you want to help, get a Wikidata account, browse this book for mentioned literature and start adding ‘main subject’ annotation. This tutorial explains how to annotation literature with main subjects in Wikidata.

Other annotation

Furthermore, take advantage of the ‘/curation’ functionality of Scholia for other useful annotations. For example, check out these Scholia pages for the human coronaviruses (HCoVs):

More in Wikipedia

There is a lot of information in Wikipedia about the pandemic. This ebook does not attempt to replace it. Based on a query from COVIWD [10], the following map shows which articles describe the pandemic in various areas of the world in the same language as this ebook:
