Wikidata entity
An MCP tool from the Public Knowledge server, hosted on mcp.hjlabs.in.
Read a Wikidata entity by Q-id: label, description, aliases, Wikipedia links and the values of its most useful properties (instance of, dates of birth/death, country, coordinates, official website, population, ISO codes and others). Values that point to other entities come back as Q-ids with labels resolved where cheap.
Name on the gateway: knowledge__wikidata_entity · read-only.
Parameters

|---|---|---|

lang | string | Language for labels. Default "en". |
