When performing a SPARQL query at the WD Query Service
(example:
https://w.wiki/ptp), these value nodes are identified by an IRI such as
wdv: 742521f02b14bf1a6cbf7d4bc599eb77 (
http://www.wikidata.org/value/742521f02b14bf1a6cbf7d4bc599eb77). The
local name part of this IRI seems to be a hash of something. However, when
I compare the hash values from the snak JSON returned from the API for the
same value node (see
https://gist.github.com/baskaufs/8c86bc5ceaae19e31fde88a2880cf0e9 for the
example), the hash associated with the value node
(35976d7cb070b06a2dec1482aaca2982df3fedd4 in this case) does not have any
relationship to the local name part if the IRI for that value node.
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikibase/Indexing/RDF_Dump_Format#Value_repr…
states:
Full values are represented as nodes having prefix
wdv: and the local
name being the hash of the value contents (e.g.
wdv:382603eaa501e15688076291fc47ae54). There is no guarantee of the value
of the hash except for the fact that different values will be represented
by different hashes, and same value mentioned in different places will have
the same hash.
But hopefully somebody will know more than me.
