evaluation - I couldn't even figure out what DBpedia is.

Hi Denny and Sebastian,

To reiterate and/or clarify.

DBpedia is a community project comprising RDF datasets constructed from
Wikipedia content that's deployed using Linked Data principles.

A little clearer, as the definition above was a little too concise:

DBpedia is a community project comprising a variety of data curation tools, services (Linked Data lookup and SPARQL), and RDF datasets constructed from Wikipedia that's deployed using Linked Data principles and cross-referenced with other data sources as illustrated in the Linked Open Data Cloud (the world's largest Knowledge Graph)[1][2].

This project has recently spawned a Databus effort which addresses historic challenges associated with dataset curation, publication, discovery, and monetization [3].
