Hey everyone :)
Thomas, Denny, Sebastian, Thomas, and I have published a paper which was accepted for the industry track at WWW 2016. It covers the migration from Freebase to Wikidata. You can now read it here: http://research.google.com/pubs/archive/44818.pdf
Congratulations!
Is it possible that you have actually used the flawed statistics from the Wikidata main page regarding the size of the project? 14.5M items in Aug 2015 seems far too low a number. Our RDF exports from mid August already contained more than 18.4M items. It would be nice to get this fixed at some point. There are currently almost 20M items, and the main page still shows only 16.5M.
