This is an interesting criticism, and there's an excellent retort by Denny in the comments. Just fyi.

Here's an opinion piece, "The Problem with Wikidata", by Mark Graham, who "is a Research Fellow at the Oxford Internet Institute," which appears on The Atlantic's website. I'm not personally supporting or opposing his views but I found this to be an interesting read. http://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2012/04/the-problem-with-wikid...

Hey,
I've been following the usage of WikiData on twitter, and for the last week or so, more then half the tweets have been pointing to this article. Apparently people like to criticize :)
Cheers

Thanks, very good discussion and very good answer by Denny. I should have a chat with Mark at some point to check out what he thinks about it (it is a bit ironic that we use international news sources to communicate when sitting in offices that are 500m away from each other ;-)
