Disambiguation in French: Charles Ier (Charlesmagne)

See original GitHub issue

I write here not to forget. Here there is an examples to be checked from the page of Charlemagne:

Charlemagne, du latin Carolus Magnus, ou Charles Ier dit « le Grand », né le 2 avril 742 (voire 747 ou 748)2, mort le 28 janvier 814 à Aix-la-Chapelle, est un roi des Francs et empereur. Il appartient à la dynastie des Carolingiens, à laquelle il a donné son nom.\nFils de Pépin le Bref, il est roi des Francs à partir de 768, devient par conquête roi des Lombards en 774 et est couronné empereur à Rome par le pape Léon III le 25 décembre 800, relevant une dignité disparue depuis la chute de l'Empire romain d'Occident en 476.\nRoi guerrier, il agrandit notablement son royaume par une série de campagnes militaires, en particulier contre les Saxons païens dont la soumission fut difficile et violente (772-804), mais aussi contre les Lombards en Italie et les musulmans d'Al-Andalus.

The token Charles Ier is disambiguated with the Charles Ier (empereur d'Autriche)

When searching for it in the term lookup there is no confidence and the id is not pointing to the right wikipedia page (but works fine the wikidata id):

@kermitt2 all correct. I was thinking maybe on something (more simple, or maybe the same thing with a different name?) we could extend the candidates matching using the “also known as” information within wikidata to increase the possibility of match of a wikipedia article when different forms are used (e.g. Charles Ier -> Wikidata:Q3044 -> Wikipedia:Charlemagne)?

@tantikristanti your comment should be better moved to task #51 😉

@lfoppiano usually the problem is that there are too many entity candidates for a given mention… If we add more entity candidates for a given mention without statistical ground, we end up in average with an ambiguity explosion, endless runtime, much lower accuracy… The labels in Wikidata are numerous from the most common to the very very rare, without any usage information, so we cant use such a simple approach. Currently we limit the entity candidate for a given mention to the top-5 most probable ones to manage this problem. Increasing the number of candidate results in significant accuracy decrease.
