Hi Kanishk, Weird co-incidence.. that was the query we used to learn about using wikidata's query engine in a wikidata workshop in pune last year.
Disclaimer : I will not be able to take out more time than this to explain in a text medium. We can talk it over a screenshare if you need more help with this. Will give one tip: Drive the car, don't try to understand how the engine works at the beginning. Indian politicians whose fathers were also politicians http://tinyurl.com/y969tbvg # Indian politicians whose fathers were also politicians SELECT ?child ?childLabel ?father ?fatherLabel WHERE { ?child wdt:P31 wd:Q5 . # human ?child wdt:P27 wd:Q668 . # Indian nationals ?child wdt:P106 wd:Q82955 . # ...who are politicians ?child wdt:P22 ?father . # ...who have *a* father ?father wdt:P106 wd:Q82955 . # ...who himself is also a politician SERVICE wikibase:label { bd:serviceParam wikibase:language "[AUTO_LANGUAGE],en". } } "P22" would be your focus here. that's the "father" property. Wikidata property browser: http://tools.wmflabs.org/hay/propbrowse/ That page gives a good listing of all properties in wikidata (a property is the glue that links two wikidata entries together) "P25" stands for mother. "P3373" : sibling. "P40" : child There is a "P1038" for "relative", but that only gives 8 results in this query. Still, good to include that in case the other queries missed those data points. -Nikhil VJ Pune, India On Monday, November 12, 2018 at 5:59:15 PM UTC+5:30, Kanishk Karan wrote: > > Hi, > > Can anyone help me with this: > I am wondering if it is possible to build a network of Indian politicians' > relatives who are politicians themselves, also highlighting a column of > which political parties they belong to? > > I am using Wikidata > <https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_every_politician/India>, > but not sure, how to go about it.
