Lesson learned, though; I'll avoid mentioning such things on-list in the future. Sorry for the trouble.

Personally, this is obviously very related to wikipedia, and interesting. That's the only things I would like to see in this list. :) There are a lot more threads much less interesting than this one... It's not like freebase is asking for money or anything, which would be a little weird.
Yeah, it struck me as pretty exciting. It covers one of the remaining major niches of "knowledge" - we don't have on WMF projects - a place set up to handle statistical data. Wikipedia understandably frowns on bare lists of figures unless they're an embellishment to articles; Wikisource won't take it unless it's part of an identifiably published work.
