Every once in a while Pywikibot breaks when a new data type gets introduced. Overview of current datatypes at https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:ListDatatypes (our list at https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/diffusion/PWBC/browse/master/pywikibot/__init__.py;2d9e841f08ef564ce644c7ffd1dd1341fa09a511$228). Introduce a WbUnknown type subclassed to WbRepresentation ( https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/diffusion/PWBC/browse/master/pywikibot/_wbtypes.py ) to fall back to. It should just store the json as a blob of data and be able to return that without messing it up
