the GlobalFactSync project [1] will start tomorrow and we have
established a good team to deal with many of these issues.
- work on syncing Wikidata and Wikipedias Infoboxes across languages and
also try to sync references from infoboxes:

http://infoboxes.net/en/Giuseppe%20Garibaldi
- we had a comment to sync up with Musicbrainz as well
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants_talk:Project/DBpedia/GlobalFactSyncRE...
- Note that there will be 10 concrete Sync targets to make concrete
progress. We hope for more suggestions.
As part of DBpedias development, we already have a way to query all IDs
and assign a global one:
https://global.dbpedia.org/same-thing/lookup/?uri=http://dbpedia.org/resourc...
We are also devising a strategy to manage all links centrally and give
feedback to sources.
There is also an engine to compare all values:
https://svn.aksw.org/papers/2019/ISWC_FlexiFusion/public.pdf
That said, these are all early prototypes and usability is lacking, but
as proof-of-concept they are quite promising. Apache Spark provides
scalability.
All the best,
Sebastian
