In general, policies for notability in Wikidata will be governed by the
community of (all) Wikidata editors. On the technical side, we aim to
achieve two things:
* The system should be able to handle a lot of data.
* The interfaces and data access features should minimize the negative
impact that additional (correct but not very important) data has on usage.
Of course, both goals have their limits and there will always be good
(technical or social) reasons to not include everything. We would rather
like to support linking and data integration with external data bases
than suggest *every* fact of the world to be copied to Wikidata.

Hi all;
I'm thinking about notability in Wikidata and how it may conflict with
Wikipedia current policies and community conceptions. Will Wikidata
allow to create entities for small villages, asteroids, galaxies, stars,
species, etc, that are not allowed today at Wikipedia? Including about
those that don't have article in any Wikipedia?
I will be happy if so.
Regards,
emijrp
