What I am meant is that the individual Wikipedias are quite different. One Wikipedia might consider it important to show certain data in this way and another one in that way while a third might insist on not showing it at all because it is not important. Having over 280 Wikipedias agree on which and how certain data should be shown seems like a major pain on top of all we're asking for from them already for Wikidata.
