Hi Daniel, thank you for your pointer,

the claim made in the summary
"in any field of research"
needs to be substantiated by data that

* show the usefulness of the project's expected outcome for research fields in which proofs do not predominantly rely on measurement but predominantly on solidity of argumentation
* outline how the bias towards facticity (Mautpreller 2011) in Wikidata disadvantages non-propositional kinds of knowledge even though the purported claim of Wikipedia is to represent "the sum of all knowledge"

see also the list of project partners,
e.g., representatives of the fields of Maths as well as of Arts & Humanities seem to be missing

best,
