Hi Romaine, Gerard, and Wikidatans,
Re Wikidata's Third Birthday, you'll find in this blog entry - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2015/11/roses-lightning-talk-about-cc-worl... - the Lightning Talk with minute marker I gave at the Wikimedia Foundation in SF yesterday about World University and School's (WUaS) donation to CC WUaS's to CC Wikidata :). Thank you!
Best regards, Scott

Hi Scott,
Sorry for the delay, I have been ill the past two weeks and not feeling well enough to look into your e-mail.
Honestly speaking, hearing about a donation is great, but I do not have a clear picture of what is donated. I trust my wiki colleagues in handling the data as they are better in it. But if you have any questions or ideas, feel free to ask.
Greetings, Romaine

Hi Romaine (and Gerard),
Greetings from the SF Bay Area to you in the Netherlands I think. (Gerard Meijssen and I Skyped together about World University and School/Wikidata some months ago; I've also done this with Quim Gil more recently). And I've been in touch some with Lydia Pintscher, Markus Kroetzsch and Magnus Manske about this as well. I think WUaS's all languages and all countries as online great universities' focus will be a growth story for Wikidata in remarkable ways.

Having donated CC World University and School to CC Wikidata on October 29th, per Lydia's suggestion, I wonder if you and I could please email further about integrating WUaS into Wikidata-Wikipedia and whether I could please ask for your help as a coder who knows Wikidata in beginning doing this in Wikidata?
Thank you.
Best regards, Scott
