As Andra reminded me above, this property went through pretty extensive discussions overlapping the one here (with examples) when it was proposed: https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Property_proposal/exact_match
I was mainly checking to ensure that no one else had been bolding working on integrating wikidata with the semantic web according to a different approach before we invested our time more heavily in this one. As it seems that has not transpired, my intention is to lead/follow our team in this direction - starting with an integration of the concepts in the Gene Ontology.

I am about to propose much more widespread use of Property:P2888 "exact match" for linking from a wikidata item to a URI that should resolve to linked data about the same concept from another semantic web resource. (amongst the biomedical items that our team works with)
Do you have examples, please?
Generally, it's better to propose an "external-ID" type property, if there are a significant number of items to be identified.
I'm happy to assist you if you decide to go down that route.
