So if this is not the place to discuss these issues, should I be going to the Wikipedia-l with them? Issues that directly relate to Wikidata?
I would really appreciate some clarification on this.
It seems that there are a lot of assumptions here that I don't understand or know about. I know everyone here is very smart. Maybe I am not qualified to be on this list because I am not an academic or a scientist or a computer programmer, and there is no place or desire to have someone not in those categories participating?
I create and edit Wikidata items. I have a library degree. Authority control and citations are my focus when editing Wikipedia/Wikidata. Yet I don't seem to fit in with the overarching schema here.

How on EARTH could this be the wrong place to talk about this? I am still laughing.
Because it's a political/social decision to make, not technical. Wikidata can only provide solutions, but the decision is with each Wikipedia, not Wikidata.
