Dear Kinsely,
It seems we all say roughly the same thing from differents points of
view or even data cultures - our objective being not to make our
personal culture prevail but to be able to converge in feeding
wikidata with reliable, IP protected, referential data.

Why are you turning a the term "DataWiki" into something so narrow?
A DataWiki is simply the application of Wiki concepts to Data re.
Create, Update, and Delete operation.
There are quite a number of DataWiki that have been in existence in
the Linked Data realm long before Wikidata. It just so happens that
Wikidata is potentially another fine example of the DataWiki concept
at Web scale.
I read and I certainly understand what you say, "at web scale" and
"at data level".
1 - I see that we "will just do not do" in a single project all the
things people (including me) are interested in (cf. Denny's position
regarding my own needs).
2 - I certainly want to stay interoperable at data level, but I think
"at netwok scale" and I do not wish to give networking architectural
responsibilities to user applications.
This is why I try to find an architectural minimum where we could
converge, and also address the authorititative operational issues in
a sustainable manner.
Best
