Wikidata:WikiProject Human rights/Example Queries

For now, this project is aiming to compile information about prisoners of conscience.

Goals:

• Define correct usage of properties and qualifiers for prisoners of conscience.
• Fill missing information (for instance place of detention) for prisoners of conscience who already have a Wikidata item.

The query below displays all prisoners of conscience, together with information about them:

SELECT ?item ?itemLabel ?placeOfDetentionLabel ?countryOfDetentionLabel ?startDate ?endDate ?image
WHERE 
{
  ?item wdt:P793 wd:Q4667873.
  OPTIONAL{
    ?item wdt:P2632 ?placeOfDetention.
    ?placeOfDetention wdt:P17 ?countryOfDetention.
    OPTIONAL{
      ?item p:P2632 ?startStatement.
      ?startStatement pq:P580 ?startDate.
    }
    OPTIONAL{
      ?item p:P2632 ?endStatement.
      ?endStatement pq:P582 ?endDate.
    }
  }
  OPTIONAL{?item wdt:P18 ?image.}
  SERVICE wikibase:label { bd:serviceParam wikibase:language "[AUTO_LANGUAGE],en". }
} 
ORDER BY DESC(?countryOfDetention)
