It seems that the nearest equivalent with Mediawiki would be with this syntax:

https://www.wikidata.org/w/api.php?action=wbgetentities&sites=enwiki&titles=Texas&languages=en&props=claims|descriptions|labels|aliases

however...what is really needed is a &search=  with perhaps a default limit of 5 entities returned, like so:

https://www.wikidata.org/w/api.php?action=wbgetentities&sites=enwiki&search=Texas&languages=en&props=claims|descriptions|labels|aliases

Unfortunately, the &search= is not available with action=wbgetentites   BUMMER.

Hello New Freebase :)

I have updated the OpenRefine reconciliation redo task to support reconciling against Wikidata here: https://github.com/OpenRefine/OpenRefine/issues/805

However, in our inspection of your API, would could not find a close approximate for something that the Freebase API had, which was OUTPUT of Properties for each Entity / Item that is returned with a search, as shown in examples here:

ALL
http://freebase-search.freebaseapps.com/?filter=(all+type%3A%2Feducation%2Feducational_institution+incompatible%3A%2Feducation%2Feducational_institution)&output=(all)&limit=100&scoring=entity&lang=en

and

PART OF
http://freebase-search.freebaseapps.com/?filter=(all+type%3A%2Feducation%2Feducational_institution+incompatible%3A%2Feducation%2Feducational_institution)&output=(part_of)&limit=100&scoring=entity&lang=en

Looking at the Wikidata API, this query syntax does not provide additional property (CLAIM) details:

https://www.wikidata.org/w/api.php?action=wbsearchentities&search=Valve&language=en&type=item

I would ideally like to have a way to output STATEMENTS or CLAIMS and their values.
An ALL CLAIMS parameter, as well as providing which CLAIMS perhaps separated by | pipe.

Is there a way to do so now with the current implementation somehow ?

Thanks in advance,
