Wikidata / Entity data by id (labels, descriptions, claims, sitelinks)

Full data for up to 50 Wikidata entities: labels, descriptions, aliases, claims (statements: property id to values, e.g. P31 instance of, P571 inception, P856 official website, P452 industry) and sitelinks (Wikipedia article titles). Use props and languages to keep the answer small: claims are most of the size: Albert Einstein (Q937) is about 450 KB with claims in one language and under 1 KB with labels|descriptions; answers over 2 MB fail at $0, so ask for claims on a few ids at a time. An unknown id answers an error at $0. Data from Wikidata (wikidata.org), CC0 1.0 public domain: no attribution required, a link to Wikidata is welcome. Not endorsed by the Wikimedia Foundation. Free, no key.
