BETA VERSION

Linking Open Data toolkit module allows to display the data of the LOD cloud in a node. For the moment, this module contains a filter which allows to display data about novelist or place from DBpedia (a RDF extraction of Wikipedia) and about artist or record from musicBrainz available on dbtune server.

This filter uses the following syntax : [lod artist|record|novelist|place $identifier]. For Dbpedia, $identifier is the identifier in english-speaking wikipedia, e.g. for http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Herbert [lod novelist Frank_Herbert] or for http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paris [lod place Paris]. For MusicBrainz, $identifier is the UUID identifier on Music Brainz website, e.g. for http://musicbrainz.org/artist/6fdd3b3e-1ea6-4da9-8d6f-8f8de01c133a.html (Maurice Ravel) [lod artist 6fdd3b3e-1ea6-4da9-8d6f-8f8de01c133a] or for http://musicbrainz.org/release/98a627c2-190f-4bcc-a90c-459462dbf67b.html (Yellow submarine, Beattles) [lod record 98a627c2-190f-4bcc-a90c-459462dbf67b].
