Differences in results on DBpedia Live and http://dbpedia.org/sparql endpoint

Hi, I tried running searches on Live, but expected results are not showing. The following search yields results on the earlier endpoint, but returns nothing in Live. Am I missing something or is this an issue?

SELECT ?p,?o
WHERE {
http://dbpedia.org/resource/Boarding_Gate ?p ?o.
?o rdf:type http://dbpedia.org/ontology/Person
}

Thanks!

Hey @jfrey. Can you help?

Hi @kelvin we excluded explicit content in the Live endpoint :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: . Just kidding, no you are not missing something. The problem is some triples are missing (i.e. the starring property you are most likely interested in). I assume that there once was a problem with the extraction which lead to an incomplete update. A team in Leipzig is currently developing DBpedia Live 2.0 since it is so hard to debug these things and we have trouble with consistency and maintenance as well as fix propagation in the current live setup in general. I am sorry but at the moment we can just be patient and wait for its release and deployment.

thanks for the quick respons @jfrey and @juliah

@jfrey, thanks for the explanation, it’s very helpful and no worries at all. I chanced upon the DBpedia Live page while working on something and thought that it was a really great idea and decided to give it a go. Because it’s newer, I was worried that I could have missed out something in my queries and therefore the null results. No worries, what you guys are doing for Live is really complex and I totally understand it’s ongoing. I’d love to use it when Live 2.0 is up and running!

Forgive my ignorance, but I’ve only just stumbled on this thing. Is DB Live what I’m accessing through a Web browser?
I haven’t been able to get any search results either. Not even on a search for help me to search!
