Dear Guillaume,

thanks for sharing. Could you explain WHO has decided that the graph split will be done?

All the best Moritz

Hi Physikerwelt,

the problems with the Wikidata Query Service backend are being discussed since July 2021,[1] and the split in the graph has been introduced as a possibility in October 2023.[2] We communicated about it periodically (maybe not to the best of our possibilities, for which I am willing to take the blame), but we've kept our communication open with the most affected users during the whole time.

Cheers,
