But it's not a fact. It's a claim someone makes. That may seem like a fine distinction, but it's really fundamental to understanding how Wikidata/Wikibase is different from DBpedia, Freebase, Cyc, etc. Wikidata doesn't collect facts. It collects statements (sourced claims). -- daniel -- Daniel Kinzler, Softwarearchitekt Wikimedia Deutschland - Gesellschaft zur Förderung Freien Wissens e.
