New subject: [Wikidata-l] Visualisations of The Most Unique Wikipedias According to Wikidata

That's an excellent recommendation. I will attempt to research the common properties
of the least unique Wikidata items.

    I think Poland may do better than average because Polish people,  out of
national pride,  have made a special effort to be well documented in English
Wikipedia and represent a Polish point-of-view on topics like the city of
Gdansk.

   One fascinating thing about Wikidata is that it provides access to all of
the wonderful concepts shared in the Wikiverse,  so now sites like Ookaboo
can collect pictures of many beautiful places that don't exist in en
Wikipedia.

  On the other hand I'm also interested in the other end of the curve,
those elite concepts which are represented widely across the Wikipedias.
Surely this is connected with subjective importance,  with some flavor
towards "global" appeal,  whatever that would turn out to mean.  Any chance
you could run a report on those?

  Hello Wikidatians,

  I made a few visualizations of the distributions of language links
 in Wikidata Items. You can also use these stats to see which Items
 represent wikipedia articles which are unique to a language and
 compare the uniquenesses of all languages. Also I investigate all the
 items with just two language links, to look at Wikipedia "pairs"

  See the full analysis:

Interesting! Could you also create that kind of visualisations by
topics : how much uniqueness come from biographies of local football
people, compared with history events or abstract concepts ?

Also, in a completly unrelated topic, you may explain me in private
what you mean with "Create a communal house to live in" which is in your
public todo list, it sounds interesting. :P
