Description
From project website, accessed October 12, 2025
The DBpedia community works hard to localize and internationalize DBpedia and support the extraction of non-English Wikipedia editions as well as build a data community around a certain language, region or special interest. At the moment, DBpedia has around 20 language chapters, which are concerned with improving the extraction of data from language-specific Wikipedia versions. The chapters are part of the DBpedia executives and have taken on responsibility to contribute to the infrastructure of DBpedia. DBpedia in Dutch is the first chapter which formalized an official DBpedia Chapter consortium.
Basically, DBpedia is a project that takes information from Wikipedia and turns this information into a database that computers can easily understand and use. For instance, if a line says
(Accessed on October 12, 2025 from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LeBron James)
"LeBron Raymone James Sr; born December 30, 1984 is an American professional basketball player for the Los Angeles Lakers of the National Basketball Association (NBA),"
DBpedia would turn this line into something like this:
Name: Lebron Raymone James Sr.
Birth date: December 30, 1984
Nationality: American
Occupation: Professional basketball player
Team: Los Angeles Lakers
League: National Basketball Association (NBA)
