Hi Denny,
I know everyone is still trying to organize this project but
nevertheless we wanted to have some clarification about how WikiData
will proceed in terms of representation of data embedded in wiki
pages.
Several descriptor frameworks are available [0] and MediaWiki have
seen some discussions about it before [1], [2] but since this project
is about semantic data it would be nice to have directional guidance
about how WikiData will proceed.
