Hi Lydia,

this sounds as a major step for Wikidata, but... can you (or someone
else) please explain it a bit further?

I'm doing my part in communicating WD changes to the Italian
wiki-communities, and since the Commons issue might be interesting
also for other stuff, I'd like to know a bit more.

(Love the kitten)
