RemarksIn Wikibase, there are two different notion of types: one is "property type", the other is "value type". They follow n:1 relation, i.e. one property type corresponds to one value type, but the same value type can represent different property types.
For example, wikibase-item property type corresponds to wikibase-entityid value type, while wikibase-property property type also corresponds to wikibase-entityid value type. For a list of Wikibase built-in data types, see d:Special:ListDatatypes.
For a list of predefined WikibaseDataType instances, see BuiltInDataTypes.
