Import properties from an ontology in a wikibase instance created with docker
Open, Needs TriagePublic

Description

Is it possible to import properties from an external ontology so I could use them in my own wikibase instance?

For example, if I wanted to use the property owl:disjointWith from OWL in my own wikibase instance, how could I do it?

I saw that I could create my own properties, but I would also like to use other properties from external ontologies.

If it is possible, maybe it should be documented.

Hi @Jelabra

This exact functionality "federation (ontology reuse)" is on the roadmap for this year.
So it doesn't exist yet, but it will.

Other tools and scripts exist to import properties from Wikidata or other wikibases, but ther EU's nothing too fancy there, just copying the entities, and then there is the need to manually keep them in sync.
