Good! This is up to you, you can either post it here in the list or submit
it directly in malange website. You can update your online application as
many times as you want until the deadline.

Of course not! This will be handled by the community. You will have of

Yes, Andrea already submitted a pull request for this [1] so, for every
Wikidata item (i.e. Qxxx) we extract links to all wikipedia articles and
dbpedia resources. We also have a script that can do a dummy merge for a
dump [2]

Locating the hard parts from now shows insight and you should definitely
include this in your application, if you can also suggest solutions then
even better ;)
You shouldn't include implementation details though, just the general
solution idea.

Dimitris
