Your point is well taken. Bear in mind, however, that all those links are Wikidata documentation; while Wikibase's own documentation is in its infancy and lacks the information you request, its start page is located here: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikibase and all of it can be expanded and supplemented by Wikimedia staff and community members alike. > It would be nice to add to EACH DataType information like "Native datatype. No extra extensions are required" or "This datatype is not natively supported in Wikibase and requires X extension. Follow installation instructions at Y." I will discuss the datatype/extension topic with the developers at my next opportunity. If there's bandwidth to generate this documentation and depending on the quantity of information needed, you may at some point see this section expanded: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikibase/Suite#Other_extensions or a new page created and linked.
