Providing the Wikidata Dump

Downloading the Dump

$wget https://dumps.wikimedia.org/wikidatawiki/entities/latest-all.nt.bz2

Splitting the Dump

To load the dump in parallel into Virtuoso we need to split the dump into several files.

$bzip2 -dk latest-all.nt.bz2
$ split -l 5 -d --additional-suffix ".nt" ./latest-all.nt wd-dump-chunk-
