By the way, I also added the two Wikidata links above to World University
and School's 'Wiki,' and 'Fundraising,' wiki, subject pages:
http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Wiki
http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Fundraising
The two, following, WUaS Data subjects, as they develop, and especially
with MIT OCW courses and great universities' open educational resources,
are also potentially relevant to this list:
http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Data
http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Database_Systems
(... all accessible from the 'Subjects' page at WUaS -
http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Subjects) .

Congratulations and good luck, Wikidata.
World University and School (
http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/World_University), like Wikipedia
with MIT OpenCourseWare, plans on working with Wikidata, if possible, and
developing in all 3000-8000 languages and ~ 200 countries, as an open,
free, wiki resource for people-to-people teaching and learning. WUaS also
plans to offer free, online, interactive Bachelor, Ph.D., Law and M.D.
degrees in many, many countries and languages, accrediting on MIT OCW in
California, to start, for its first matriculating Bachelor's degree class
in 2014 at 'The College at World University and School' -

Startup World University and School would be interested in working closely
with Wikidata.
All the best,
Scott

Heya folks,
We applied to the Knight News Challenge to push Wikidata even further
during a second year of development. You can find out more here:
http://blog.wikimedia.de/2012/06/25/wikidata-applies-for-the-knight-news-ch…
and see our proposal here:

It would be awesome if you could support the proposal by clicking
"like" on the proposal page. Keep your fingers crossed ;-)
Cheers
Lydia
