Depends how good the DBpedia data really is - as the
BBC article says,
some 2007 football match in the UK was extracted as a "Battle"...

Maybe we can do better?

This is really great. I am thrilled about this because this isn't
coverage
about
Wikidata but coverage _with_ Wikidata on major
news sites for the
second time
this week
(
http://www.faz.net/aktuell/feuilleton/kino/academy-awards-die-oscars-von-19…
being
the other one). They're using Wikidata data
to do meaningful reporting.
Our data
and the project as a whole got (at the very
least) good enough for
this. It
feels to me like we've broken through a
wall.
High5 everyone! :D
Cheers
Lydia
