I guess the closest are these documents:

http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikidata/Introduction http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikidata/Technical_proposal

and the articles linked here:

http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikidata/Notes

which are still under development. But you have found these already, so I wonder what you think is missing? (besides the obviously unfinished notes).

I hope this helps, Denny
