Hi,
as of

an item is created how does it connect to other area's?
as Nicolas has pointed out the Wikidata Concepts Monitor (WDCM) system was built with the
purpose to answer to this and similar questions.
All WDCM dashboards can be accessed from the appropriate section of
http://wmdeanalytics.wmflabs.org (or
http://wdcm.wmflabs.org/, the old domain).
>> Is everything connected, or are we
actually looking at a collection of isolated data clusters? Is there a way to visualize
this?
I hope you understand how complex your question is. There are different statistical,
analytical strategies that could be employed to provide an answer. The WDCM system relies
on some of them. I would suggest learning how to work with the following data products in
order to start investigating these questions:
- The WDCM Semantics dashboard
- The WDCM (S)itelinks dashboard
- The WDCM (T)itles dashboard.
We use directed graphs, similarity maps and dendograms to visualize the structure of
Wikidata item and Wikimedia projects linkage in respect to how the Wikidata items map
(i.e. how they are re-used) across the Wikimedia universe.
The WDCM documentation page is on Wikitech but it needs an update badly because of a
thorough re-engineering that started in December 2019 and is now getting close to
completion.
In the meantime, I will be more than glad to answer to any questions that you might have.
Note: a Google Hangouts session works better than tons of emails. Thank you for your
understanding.
That however only captures usage inside Wikimedia projects. It does
not cover the query service, usage of the API, Linked data endpoint,
dumps etc. I believe Andra is after that as well and we have no way to
track that.
Cheers
Lydia
