I am building a NED system for assignment. To find the candidate entities out of all wikipedia entities that can be linked name mentions I am planning to use dbpedia. But dbpedia query is not showing all pages.

For example an entity dbpedia/pages/Jaguar is shown as having rdf:type owl:Thing but when I run following query the results do not include Jaguar.

    SELECT ?subject WHERE {
    ?subject rdf:type owl:Thing}

Is it because it filters out some results automatically if there are too many results? What is the solution?

    The reason is quite obvious. The DBpedia endpoint is a free, shared service, thus, there is a default limit of 10000. – UninformedUser Mar 13 '17 at 19:43
  • You can load the whole DBpedia dataset into your own hosted triple store and there indeed you can increase the resultset size or even disable it. – UninformedUser Mar 13 '17 at 19:44

    If you count (this time the query will work), you'll see that there are about 5mln things currently in DBpedia. – Ivo Velitchkov Mar 14 '17 at 10:08
