Sounds like a reasonable idea to me. Another open
source advocate in
Seattle has encouraged cooperation between Wikipedia and DBpedia. What
would it take to make Gerard's suggestion come to life?

Hoi,
An argument rages about the significance of the English WIkipedia using
Wikidata for person data, things like date of death.
DBpedia does a better job than Wikidata does and it does it because they
not only use dumps to update their information but they also use
information from RSS. Therefore they do a better job than volunteers like
myself at Wikidata do.
In my blogpost [1] I argue for cooperation. My point is very much that
increasingly I find I do no longer have the time to maintain the data for
people who died in 2014 or 2015. I have done that the last two years..
I desperately want to do other things with Wikidata, things that are more
relevant. PLEASE consider cooperating with the DBpedia people. They are
part of our ecosystem, they want to share and they want to make their
data
available with our license.
Thanks,
GerardM
