Wikibase Export is a free and open-source extension to Wikibase and MediaWiki. It adds an easy-to-use export page via which you can download CSV files.
Users can filter and group data by year, choose an export language, and pick their preferred header format.
Administrators can configure the export user interface from within the wiki.
Professional Wiki created Wikibase Export. We are Wikibase developers that provide professional Wikibase software development and Wikibase hosting.
Thanks to Universität Mannheim for funding initial development of the extension.
You can export Wikibase data to CSV via the Special:WikibaseExport
page. You can navigate directly to this page
or find it in the "Wikibase" section of the "Special pages" list on Special:SpecialPages
.
As a wiki administrator, you can add a link to the export page to the sidebar by modifying MediaWiki:Sidebar
.
Wiki administrators can configure there to be an option to select the export language at the top of the export page.
The language selection dropdown only shows if there are multiple languages available. If the administrators do not configure any language, the wiki's main language is used.
Example configuration on MediaWiki:WikibaseExportConfig
:
{
"exportLanguages": [
"en",
"nl",
"de"
]
}
At the top of the export page, select the entities you wish to export. You can either select a single entity or multiple entities. You can search for entities to include in the export by entering their label or ID in the search box.
As a wiki administrator, you can configure the default entities to be selected via MediaWiki:WikibaseExportConfig
. Example:
{
"defaultSubjects": [
"Q1",
"Q2"
]
}
You can also limit which entities show up in the search results via subjectFilterPropertyId
and subjectFilterPropertyValue
. Example:
{
"subjectFilterPropertyId": "P1",
"subjectFilterPropertyValue": "Q2"
}
Wikibase Export supports filtering and grouping by year. This is however an optional feature. If you do not want all or any of your properties to be grouped by year, use the "Ungrouped values" section. This section only shows if the wiki administrators have configured ungrouped properties.
To export values for only some ungrouped properties, untick the "Values for all properties" checkbox and select the properties you wish to export.
As a wiki administrator, you can configure the list of ungrouped properties via MediaWiki:WikibaseExportConfig
. Example:
{
"ungroupedProperties": [
"P1",
"P2"
]
}
If you want to group values by year, use the "Values grouped by year" section. This section only shows if the wiki administrators have configured grouped properties.
Select the date range you wish to export. You can either select a single year or a range of years. The CSV will have one column per year in the range. Example:
To export values for only some grouped properties, untick the "Values for all properties" checkbox and select the properties you wish to export.
The grouping feature uses qualifiers to determine the year of a statement. To be included in the export, a statement that gets grouped by year needs to have one of these qualifiers:
It is common to combine Start time and End time qualifiers to define a closed range, though leaving the range open is also supported.
As a wiki administrator, you can configure the grouping by year via MediaWiki:WikibaseExportConfig
. Example:
{
"propertiesToGroupByYear": [
"P3",
"P4"
],
"startTimePropertyId": "P10",
"endTimePropertyId": "P11",
"pointInTimePropertyId": "P12",
"defaultStartYear": 2019,
"defaultEndYear": 2023
}
Without propertiesToGroupByYear
and either pointInTimePropertyId
or both
startTimePropertyId
and endTimePropertyId
, the "Values grouped by year" section will not
show.
At the bottom of the export page you can choose which column headers to use. The default is to use the property IDs, though you can choose to use property labels instead.
