Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the Wikidata MCP Server?
Connect to Wikidata, the central storage for structured data of Wikimedia projects. This MCP server allows your AI agent to tap into millions of items, properties, and statements using both traditional SPARQL queries and modern vector-based semantic search.
What you can do
- Entity Retrieval — Fetch full data and statements for any Wikidata Item (e.g., Q42) using the
get_itemandget_item_statementstools. - Advanced Querying — Execute complex SPARQL queries against the Wikidata Query Service (WDQS) with
execute_sparqlto find relationships and patterns across the entire graph. - Semantic Search — Use
search_items_vectorandsearch_properties_vectorto find entities and properties based on meaning rather than just exact keywords. - Data Contribution — Update the knowledge graph by creating statements or setting descriptions with
create_statementandset_item_description(requires OAuth). - Similarity Analysis — Compare text strings against specific entities to get semantic similarity scores using
get_similarity_score.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Provide your User Agent (required by Wikimedia policy)
- Optionally provide an OAuth 2.0 Access Token for write operations
- Start exploring the world's knowledge from your favorite AI client
Who is this for?
- Researchers & Academics — instantly verify facts, dates, and relationships across history, science, and culture.
- Data Scientists — extract structured datasets for analysis or training without leaving the chat interface.
- Developers — find entity IDs and property schemas to integrate into applications or automate data enrichment.

How Vinkius secures
Wikidata for LlamaIndex
Every tool call from LlamaIndex to the Wikidata MCP Server is protected by DLP redaction, cryptographic audit chains, V8 sandbox isolation, kill switch, and financial circuit breakers.
Frequently asked questions
How can I find a Wikidata Item if I don't know its Q-ID?
You can use the search_items_vector tool. It performs a hybrid search using high-dimensional embeddings and keywords to find the most relevant entities based on your natural language description.
Is it possible to run complex queries like 'List all female scientists born in the 19th century'?
Yes, the execute_sparql tool allows you to run any valid SPARQL query against the Wikidata Query Service. This is the most powerful way to filter and aggregate data across the entire knowledge graph.
Can I use this server to update information on Wikidata?
Yes, if you provide an OAuth 2.0 Access Token, you can use create_statement to add new data or set_item_description to update descriptions in various languages.
How does LlamaIndex connect to MCP servers?
Use the MCP client adapter to create a connection. LlamaIndex discovers all tools and wraps them as query engine tools compatible with any LlamaIndex agent.
Can I combine MCP tools with vector stores?
Yes. LlamaIndex agents can query Wikidata tools and vector store indexes in the same turn, combining real-time and embedded data for grounded responses.
Does LlamaIndex support async MCP calls?
Yes. LlamaIndex's async agent framework supports concurrent MCP tool calls for high-throughput data processing pipelines.
