World University and School (http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/World_University), like Wikipedia with MIT OpenCourseWare, plans on working with Wikidata, if possible, and developing in all 3000-8000 languages and ~ 200 countries, as an open, free, wiki resource for people-to-people teaching and learning. WUaS also plans to offer free, online, interactive Bachelor, Ph.D., Law and M.D. degrees in many, many countries and languages, accrediting on MIT OCW in California, to start, for its first matriculating Bachelor's degree class in 2014 at 'The College at World University and School' - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/The_College_at_World_University_and_School .

Heya folks,

We applied to the Knight News Challenge to push Wikidata even further
during a second year of development. You can find out more here:
http://blog.wikimedia.de/2012/06/25/wikidata-applies-for-the-knight-news-challenge-and-you-can-help/
and see our proposal here:

It would be awesome if you could support the proposal by clicking
"like" on the proposal page. Keep your fingers crossed ;-)

Cheers
Lydia
