Hello Scott,

Thanks for your input! If I understand this right, your concern is that there might be lists like "list of species" which are impossible (with several million entries) to have as single list?

There is the splitting lists scenario, https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:List_generation_input/Scenario_C_splitting

Does this go in the right direction for you (even though with far fewer items)?

Does

cellular (neuronal) and nano (atomic?)

refer to something like the possibility to create lists of lists?

Kind Regards,

Jan

Hi Léa, Jan, Gerard, Markus, Wikidatans and All,

I've read at different times that there are anywhere from 3 to 100 million
species (the latter would be a long list indeed!) and when you get probably
to different lists at the cellular (neuronal) and nano (atomic?) levels,
for example, the lists will probably get "way" longer :)

Thank you, Scott
