Phabricator and hopefully fixed. :)

With this premise, I think that Romaine's proposal for a game is
absolutely doable and a good idea.
I want to clarify, I mean that I agree with Gerard that the best
indication for country for Battle of Stalingrad is URSS, I
Hoi,

Well, getting a list of violations per country would not be hard, given
the dates. There are, for example, 2,300 UK citizens who died 1706 or

Of course there will always be some things too complicated to be reasonably
expressed in Wikidata, or hard to process by software.
But in the case of historical datas, we better have to think of a common
and practical representation and ways for tools to process datas, because
this is totally a
This is an example of a more general problem, I think - country is
