Hypercubes and csv flat files belong in commons in my opinion  (commons may have a different opinion ). That's if we even want to store a copy.

This source data should then be translated into wikidata triples and statements and imported into wikidata items.

The statements in wikidata are then used to generate lists and tables and graphs and info graphics in wikipedia.

At least that's how I see it

I have used the CBS website to compile my own statistics for research. Their data is completely available online as far as I know and you can download the queries you run on the fly in .csv file format, or text or excel. They have various data tables depending on what you find interesting and complete tables of historical data is also available. That said, I think any pilot project would need to start with their publications, which are also available online. These can be freely used as sources for statements. Interesting data for Wikidata could be population statistics of major cities per century or employment statistics per city per century and so forth. See CBS.nl

Hoi,
As far as I am concerned, data that is available on the web is fine if you use data on the web. It makes no difference when the data is to be used in the context of the WMF. 

When the CBS shares data with us in Wikidata, it makes the data available in Wikipedia.

It is why I would like for something small, a pilot project something where we can build on.
Thanks,

Netherlands Statistics should just post the data on the web...so that anyone can use its "Linked Data".

And actually, CSV on the Web is now a reality (no longer a need for XBRL)

As DanBri notes in his P.S. at the bottom of the above link..."... the ability (in the csv2rdf doc) to map from

rows in a table via templates into RDF triples....is very powerful."
