I'm curious how a realistic virtual earth as "classroom" and STEM field
site (in all 8k languages eventually) can best draw on and query Wikidata
data and its ecosystem - to further help define the future of Wikidata for
robust growth. WUaS which donated CC WUaS to CC Wikidata last October,
plans to develop such a realistic virtual earth/universe, e.g. in a Google
Street View/Maps/Earth with TIME SLIDER with OpenSim, conceptually, for
example, but with STEM precision and also at the neuronal (cellular),
molecular, and nano (atomic) levels - and in developing major universities
in all countries' main languages (Harvards of the Web).

Thank you.

Regards, Scott
