enabled them on Wikidata just to be safe, but it can be done very quickly.

   \o/ It'll be Dutch Wikipedia and French Wikisource.
   - Sneak peek at the current state of development for showing constraint
   violations on statements
   <https://twitter.com/wikidata/status/597082067705438209>
   - Hovercards also show the target's label and ID now. (Try them by
   turning them on in the beta features section of your preferences.)
   - Continued working on RDF export
   - More work on making it possible to add a reference right away when
   adding a statement (and allowing the full statement incl references to be
   edited at the same time)
   - Did more work to make usage tracking possible on multilingual wikis
   (namely Commons)
