Data for all lakes on Earth?

Question

Is there data available for all lakes on Earth? Even just a list of names would be nice; metadata is also welcome.

In this case, a lake is any enclosed body of water with a surface area between some arbitrary limits. Maybe someone already wrote a script that can provide such an output?

Wikipedia has a couple of lists, but they have a lower limit, i.e. small lakes are not listed.

Answer 1

Wikidata knows of about 240,000 lake. Here's a query that will give you the first 1000.

#List of all the lakes
SELECT ?itemLabel ?coord WHERE {
  ?item (wdt:P31/wdt:P279*) wd:Q23397.
  OPTIONAL { ?item wdt:P625 ?coord. }
  SERVICE wikibase:label { bd:serviceParam wikibase:language "[AUTO_LANGUAGE],en". }
}
LIMIT 1000
