A rudimentary Crystal Pool SPARQL Query Service.

Gray Wing

Queries facts in SPARQL.

A rudimentary Crystal Pool Query service. This is the successor of GrayWing-Prolog, which allows you to query for entities & relations about Warriors, a fiction series authored by Erin Hunter. With SPARQL query language, performing more complex query is possible.

The live site is https://q.crystalpool.cxuesong.com/. You may query for what we have on Crystal Pool with SPAQL query language.

If you are new to this, note that Crystal Pool uses Wikibase, the same MediaWiki extension as in Wikidata. You may found their SPARQL language guide on Wikibooks. Basically the query syntax and even the namespace prefixes are the same with Wikidata. (I haven't figure out how to change the prefixes in a easy fashion for now. Oops. Later wd: might be replaced with cp:)

Crystal Pool is a structured knowledge-base for Warriors. The site is still constructing in progress; thus most of the relations are not available for query. For now it just include most of the kinship & allegiances. If you would like to improve Crystal Pool Wiki, consider requesting for an account. Thank you.
