Firstly a disclaimer - we have no plans on productizing this in current form... None whatsoever. This is an experiment to explore the state of wikidata as a source of infobox data and technical problems we need to solve to integrate in mobile. It is thus in the experimental mode of the mobile site (available via settings if you want to play with it)

It's got a few kinks in it:
* view in Wikidata on betalabs is pointing to Wikidata.org not the beta labs instance
* i18n issues

This experiment explores whether
1) such a thing is feasible
2) whether people if presented with this use it to make edits [1]
3) identify i18n issues/problems with wikidata (thanks Sjoerd)
4) explore api / editing across projects (edits happen on wikipedia and stored on Wikidata) - currently it has highlighted a big issue with saving multiple claims at a time.
5) an excuse to use oojs ui

One of my imagined end goals would be turning this into a gadget in desktop and using it for micro contributions a la WikiGrok and providing information on stubs for other languages.

Hey,

Can somebody remove the annoying word capitalization from the infobox itself? Please don't force capitalizing, it's ugly and only applies to certain languages.
