Hoi,
I do not have a profile there and I am nowadays reluctant to add profiles.
Having said that. The data that will be in an abstract Wikipedia allows for
the generation of text in any language. What it does is enable the
generation of texts on the fly to be used as a complement to any Wikipedia.
Best is not to save generated texts but to cache them. We could even seek
for the routines and data used to generate articles for for instance the
Cebuano Wikipedia, remove the completely generated articles and keep the
same level of service. In this way it is for Wikipedians to write text and
have generated text as a basis to improve upon.
Hidden in Reasonator there is the "concept cloud". This is just one example
[1]. It shows the items that are common in the Wikipedias for an item. With
an abstract Wikipedia we can compare and indicate what articles do not have
links to concepts that are known to be good. There may be all kinds of
reasons for that but it is easy to find the wrong reasons when you compare
it with what others include. You will find the problematic, the erroneous
and the bigoted links. When we do we could override the delivery of that
article with a choice to the "abstract" for comparison.
Thanks,
GerardM

Hi all!
I really try not to spam the chat too much with pointers to my work on the
Abstract Wikipedia, but this one is probably also interesting for Wikidata
contributors. It is the draft for a chapter submitted to Koerner and
Reagle's Wikipedia@20 book, and talks about knowledge diversity under the
light of centralisation through projects such as Wikidata.
Public commenting phase is open until July 19, and very welcome:
"Collaborating on the sum of all knowledge across languages"
