I guess the closest are these documents:<div><br><div><a href="http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikidata/Introduction">http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikidata/Introduction</a><br></div><div><a href="http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikidata/Technical_proposal">http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikidata/Technical_proposal</a><br>
<br>and the articles linked here:</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikidata/Notes">http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikidata/Notes</a></div><div><br></div><div>which are still under development. But you have found these already, so I wonder what you think is missing? (besides the obviously unfinished notes).</div>
<div><br></div><div>I hope this helps,</div><div>Denny</div><div><br></div><div><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2012/3/18 John Erling Blad <span dir="ltr">&lt;<a href="mailto:jeblad@gmail.com">jeblad@gmail.com</a>&gt;</span><br>
