If you are using Wikidata, it requires User-Agent #94

You can't query Wikidata without an User-Agent, so I propose to leave a note in the README to say that you should do things like: SPARQL::Client.new(endpoint, :method => :get, :headers => { 'User-Agent': 'MyBotName'}) to use Wikidata.

Actually, the library should provide a default for User-Agent. I'll add something suggesting that applications override this.
