This lecture introduces the use of the Wikidata platform and the concept of the Semantic Web.

Wikidata for (Legal) Historians

This lecture introduces the use of the Wikidata platform, which serves as a central knowledge database in the field of Linked Open Data. The underlying Semantic Web standard will also be briefly explained to provide an understanding of the platform's functionality and possibilities. In the second part of the lecture, the FactGrid platform will be presented. While it uses the same technical infrastructure as Wikidata, it focuses on the knowledge domain of historical research. Using practical examples from ecclesiastical history, the potential of both platforms, Wikidata and FactGrid, will be explored. The lecture aims to spark a discussion on how legal historical research might also benefit from open and interconnected datasets.
