Hoi,

That is so obviously plain wrong when you want to apply SKOS to Wikidata. When SKOS has this requirement it is useless in the Wikidata context.

Thanks,

Yes. http://www.w3.org/TR/skos-primer/

Well, it *requires* that the labels in all the languages mean the same. How you
ensure that is up to you.

Note that *all* string values in RDF are multilingual, always. SKOS does not
need to provide a new mechanism for that.
