Wikidata Search Entities
Search Wikidata for entities (items, properties, or lexemes) by label or description using the MediaWiki Wikibase API. Wikidata is the world's largest open knowledge graph with 100M+ data items. Returns entity IDs (Q-numbers), labels, descriptions, and aliases. Complementary to Wikidata_SPARQL_query for finding entity IDs before constructing SPARQL queries.
