Nearby at Eiffel Tower: "Could not load place data Unexpected response code"

[nicolas-raoul]

Maybe the Eiffel Tower item has more data than we expect, or something different that we do not support yet?

[savsch]

It turns out that this clause is causing the problem:

OPTIONAL {?item schema:description ?itemDescriptionPreferredLanguage. FILTER (lang(?itemDescriptionPreferredLanguage) = "en")}

Removing it makes the query succeed.

[nicolas-raoul]

Thanks a lot for investigating! I guess it happens because this item (and similarly popular items) have a description in many languages.
I wonder what we should do. Maybe if we get timeout then we can try again with several smaller queries (for instance one to get descriptions and one to get the rest), or maybe even load no description.

The goal of this app is to get people to upload pictures of underrepresented things, and most items that need a picture do not have this issue, so it is not really high priority compared to other Nearby issues. :-)
