Abstract
Wikibase is the software that powers Wikidata, but it can be also be used as a separate installation, to suit individual needs. This platform is ideal for creating data archives that can easily interact with the semantic web through the use of open standards; compared with other software solutions, it offers unique features, such as the option to manually edit every single semantic triple in a graphical interface. However, integrating various data models and vocabularies in Wikibase is a challenging task due to specialties in the data model. This study sheds light on modeling datasets in Ontolex-Lemon – the Lexicon Model for Ontologies, as one of the predominant and prevailing ontologies in lexicography – in Wikibase. We discuss some of the major issues that should be taken into account for remodeling Ontolex-Lemon on Wikibase, looking at two use cases dealing with Latin and Kurdish lexical data, respectively. We believe that our approach paves the way for further conversions in the future and toward a set of general guidelines.
