    '''[[mw:Wikibase|Wikibase]]''' [http://wikiba.se/ (wikiba.se)] is a system for storing and querying structured data that powers [[Wikidata]] and other wikis.
    #REDIRECT [[Knowledge graphs#Wikibase]]
     
    Wikibase consists of two extensions:
     
    :# [[mw:Extension:Wikibase Repository|Wikibase Repository]] that allows a wiki to work as a repository for structured data.
    :# [[mw:Extension:Wikibase Client|Wikibase Client]] that allows a wiki to access structured data from a repository. The client can work only with repository databases it can access so they must be on the same machine or the same load balancer.
     
    == Installation ==
    [[mw:Wikibase/Installation|Wikibase installation instructions at Mediawiki.org]] and [[mw:Wikibase/Installation/Advanced_configuration|advanced configuration of Wikibase]].
     
    The installation instructions assume you are installing the dependencies with [[mw:Composer|Composer]], a PHP package manager that makes the installation of dependencies easy.
     
    == Related useful extensions ==

    * [[mw:Extension:UniversalLanguageSelector]] is recommended to work in conjunction with Wikibase for user comfort.
