I've looked through the documentation but can't find an explicit answer
to this question so if I've missed it, apologies.
Wikidata will be implemented as an extension to Mediawiki -- does that
mean that the entire Wikidata architecture will be capable of being
installed on Mediawiki instances outside Wikipedia? And if so, by this
(northern) autumn, when we understand the interface may first be
available to early users?
I ask because we run a family of mediawikis and are very interested in
piloting integration of Wikidata-type functionality across our own
sites. I understand the emphasis in the main Wikipedia-connected project
will be to on growing the community of users, and moving forward
cautiously with regard to large data uploads. But we would like to
experiment with data uploads within our own family of mediawikis,
engaging networks of specialists around the world, and also working on
the possibilty of automated integration from RSS etc.
Is there anyone in Berlin we could talk to about this?
Thanks
Johnny West
