Hello,
if you consider statements as each triple in Wikidata, they do already have a unique identifier. For example:
http://www.wikidata.org/entity/statement/Q27745008-395bc538-41dd-d2a4-62ad-ee49748323d8 is the id for the triple wd:Q27745008 wdt:P31 wd:Q146
What they don't have is a unique QNode.
Best,
Daniel

Facts can be seen as a special case of assertions, a special case of quotations. In Wikipedia, we should only be dealing with assertions (we must have a source) and in Wikidata, each statement is an abstract paraphrase of an assertion. Is there a reason why Wikidata statements do not have a unique identifier?

SJ - Rephrasing... reminds me of some of the discussion we had within Schema.org where I pushed for Quotation often. https://schema.org/Quotation  where we didn't put much work into helping connect more dots, but still it's there.

Quotations often tie into facts, "he said/she said", dispute resolution, etc.
And where it seems Wikidata's quotation property might also somehow play a part in your proposal.

Adam - I think it would be nice to have a concrete example of some clusters where a quotation is part of the fact basis.
