| '''[[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.
