  This seems like an arbitrary way to cut up Wikidata. It very much smacks of 
"let's take the largest subset of our dataset and evict it," without 
consideration to why the dataset should be cut up this way.
  
  What are the boundaries of these new projects? Is Wikidata a graph for 
everything except scholarly articles? What about books, or other forms of 
citable media (i.e., any and all media)? What about scholarly articles that are 
relevant to the Wikidata graph in ways other than WikiCite's massive citation 
graph?
  
  I am very interested in the subgraph conversation and how we can envision 
Wikidata as part of a massive linked data ecosystem without itself being overly 
burdened. I think evicting arbitrary subsets of the data is just not good 
strategy.
  
  If I were to suggest a change, perhaps we could divide the graph along 
"media" and "not media". (We can subsequently decide if we want to split "not 
media" further.) This I think would draw lines that are coherent and not 
arbitrary. The scholarly articles would be a part of the media graph project. 
And there would be free cross-referencing between the sites. Do you think this 
would achieve your goals?
