Please remove the School list from this. We are currently adding the
edubase references to each of these, and this will replace the need for
an additional wikidata tag. Better to just have the one primary reference.

Leaving aside any arguments over whether we should have Wikidata links at all, it seems a bit ludicrous to exempt one specific category of objects in one specific country simply because that country has its own local referencing system for that kind of object. If anything, Wikidata should take precedence as it is worldwide and not confined to a single category of objects. Having both references could provide the opportunity for cross-validation in the future, if EDUBASE numbers are added to Wikidata (or vice versa).
