FWIW, I have already changed my code to work with either `claims` or `statements`. Quick thoughts: - IMHO this change is too significant to do it "just because it's a nicer word". No one really cares what it's called, as long as you call it the same thing every time. - A big problem with this change that it was not announced anywhere I did see, and I'm pretty much subscribed to everything public. Give us poor volunteer devs some warning, at least - Also, it's inconsistent. Wikidata items and properties have `claims`, mediainfo items have `statements`. Is this going to change on Wikidata as well? Wikibase in general? - Other things have changes in the Commons/mediainfo implementation. `datatype` is missing, for one (tracked by some other issue here). Will it come back? Will it stay missing but only for `mediainfo`? The problem is not that things are different, they are different needlessly (AFAICT), and unannounced.
