DESCRIPTION

Catmandu::Wikidata provides modules to process data from http://www.wikidata.org/ within the Catmandu framework. In particular it facilitates access to Wikidata entity record via Catmandu::Importer::Wikidata, the simplification of these records via fixes (wd_language($language), wd_simple(), wd_simple_strings(), and wd_simple_claims()). Other Catmandu modules can be used to further process the records, for instance to load them into a database.
