Wikidata is a data source with many potential applications, which provides its data openly in RDF. Our study aims to evaluate the usability of Wikidata as a linked data source for acquiring richer descriptions of cultural heritage digital objects within the context of Europeana, a data aggregator from the cultural domain. We want to automatize such data acquisition as much as possible. Specifically, we aim to crawl and convert Wikidata using the standard approaches and operations developed for the (Semantic) Web of Data, i.e. using technologies like linked data consumption and RDF(S)/OWL ontology expression and reasoning. We also seek to re-use already developed “semantic” specifications, such as conversions to and from generic data models like Schema.org and SKOS. We have developed an experimental set-up and accompa-nying software to test the feasibility of this approach. We conclude that Wikidata’s linked data is able to express an interesting level of semantics for cultural heritage, but quality can still be improved and a human operator still must assist linked data applications to interpret Wikidata’s RDF.
