There will be changes in the week of January 20th 2026 regarding the WDQS graph split and sunsetting of the legacy service. There is a https://qlever.scholia.wiki/ mirror running with QLever as backend with the full Wikidata content. This mirror is part of an evaluation of alternatives to Blazegraph.

we have moved closer to having the option to switch to a #QLever backend. Beta testers can assist by exploring the interim QLever-backed Scholia instance: https://qlever.scholia.wiki/

Any issues can reported here (we appreciate it!): https://github.com/ad-freiburg/scholia/issues

new blog: "Rescuing Scholia: will we make it in time?" https://doi.org/10.59350/yh369-rr787 https://chem-bla-ics.linkedchemistry.info/2025/12/08/rescuing-scholia.html

"What started out in 2016 on Twitter became a (small) award winning decade long collaborative project. Unfortunately, the future is not clear. We are at odds if it will survice the growth of Wikidata and in particularly the SPARQL graph split."
