wikidata.datavalue.DatavalueError: 9: time precision other than 11 or 14 is unsupported

[Andrew Ziem]

This date of birth is just the year 1950 instead of the full date. How would I get the partial data 1950 without this exception?

>>> from wikidata.client import Client                                              
>>> client = Client()  # doctest: +SKIP                                             
>>> prop_dob = client.get('P569')                                                      
>>> entity = client.get('Q4794599')
>>> entity[prop_dob]

You can always access to its underlying data through attributes property (though it's undocumented), e.g.:

entity.attributes['claims'][prop_dob.id]

OK, I see the year 1950 here, and the precison=9 means year. Thank you

entity.attributes['claims'][prop_dob.id][0]['mainsnak']['datavalue']['value']['time']
