I do not understand the validity of any of these arguments.
- I think there is general opposition to having users manage items.
- I specifically oppose any item management. CentralAuth and T168792: Use Cognate to link user pages. Everything else can already be queried.
- One might reasonably make meta.wikimedia.org a federated Wikibase installation a la structured data for Commons, so that users can define global attributes, potentially using data from Wikidata.
- Either way, I think the Wikidata community wants nothing to do with users managing data there.
- Fine with me, as long as you can reference a user item from wikidata, it doesn't really matter. is a really big caveat and probably will not be implemented, not least for the opposition in this task.
- There is specific opposition to having user information, which is seen as unimportant, mixed in to the Q main space items. You can review http://www.wikidata.org/wiki/WD:N for specifics.
- Also adds additional editorial burden for almost 0 gain for the Wikidata community.
- There is specific opposition to enabling users to out themselves.
- Adds additional administrative burden for almost 0 gain for the Wikidata community.
If you really think this is a good idea, you need to have a proposal ready to overcome all of those objections. Plus others that the community decides are worth objecting over. (Good luck.)
