Hoi,
I am truly happy that Wikidata is its own master. When a Wikipedia has
certain policies it is welcome to it. As long as they do not use Wikidata
to improve the quality of its content [1] and by the same token improve the
data at Wikidata, I am not interested what a Wikipedia does.
Thanks,
GerardM
