Maybe we can do better?

This is really great. I am thrilled about this because this isn't coverage about Wikidata but coverage _with_ Wikidata on major news sites for the second time this week (http://www.faz.net/aktuell/feuilleton/kino/academy-awards-die-oscars-von-192... being the other one). They're using Wikidata data to do meaningful reporting. Our data and the project as a whole got (at the very least) good enough for this. It feels to me like we've broken through a wall. High5 everyone! :D
