# Wheel of Heaven Knowledge Graph

Every page, topic, core claim and cited source on [Wheel of Heaven](https://www.wheelofheaven.world/), and the links between them — the graph drawn at **[wheelofheaven.world/graph/](https://www.wheelofheaven.world/graph/)**.

**1,190 nodes · 5,588 links.**

- Nodes: 705 source, 150 wiki, 147 book, 72 claim, 57 topic, 24 article, 14 timeline, 11 news, 10 dataset.
- Links: 1591 about, 1564 cites, 1247 links, 703 see_also, 231 binds, 112 depends_on, 51 defines, 42 broader, 38 quotes, 9 precedes.

## Files

| File | What it holds |
|---|---|
| `graph.json` | The whole graph as published on the site: `nodes` (id, kind, label, url, meta, desc) and `links` (`[source, target, type]`). |
| `nodes.jsonl` | One node per line (viewer-friendly). |
| `links.jsonl` | One link per line: `source`, `target`, `type`. |
| `topics.json` | The topic index behind the site's [topic pages](https://www.wheelofheaven.world/topics/): per topic its name, kind, description, broader and narrower topics, and every page filed under it by section; `by_page` maps each page to its topics. |

## Kinds and relations

- **topic** — a hub from the site's controlled vocabulary (`group`: theme, tradition, figure, method, science, future). Topics link to broader topics, so the vocabulary is itself a graph.
- **wiki**, **article**, **timeline**, **news**, **book**, **dataset** — pages of the site; `url` is the page path.
- **claim** — a durable claim record from the [research core](https://github.com/wheelofheaven/core); `claim` carries its public label (direct, framework, inferred, speculative).
- **source** — a book, paper or film a page cites.

Relations: `about` (page → topic), `broader` (topic → topic), `defines` (entry → topic), `links` (body link), `see_also`, `cites` (page → source), `binds` (page → claim), `depends_on` (claim → claim), `quotes` (Raëlian book → scripture book), `precedes` (age → age).

## How it is made

Distilled by `scripts/build_graph.py` in the [www repository](https://github.com/wheelofheaven/www.wheelofheaven.world) from the site's content, its topic vocabulary (`data/graph/topics.toml`), the sources registry and the core claim records. Topic assignment is automatic (vocabulary terms matched against each page's title, names, keywords and summary), corrected by hand through per-topic `exclude`/`include` lists, and reviewed through the build's coverage report. Each topic also has a page on the site, in all ten site languages.

The site reads its material through the Raëlian canon as its declared interpretive centre; the graph records what the site contains and how it is connected, not a judgement on any claim.
