WikiDatas mandate appears to e to improve en.Wikipedia (and then the other WMF projects). If WikiData cannot serve the needs of en.wikipedia it will be of little consequence to the other projects since it will need a community to maintain.
This is a new piece of information for me. Does enwiki really have any priority to other Wikipedias? :-O I would be unhappy with that. My point is a pragmatic one not a political one. Note that Wikidata is planned to add language prototypes in the third part of the time line - that is my reference. If you read my note you will notice I propose to take a realistic view of the communities. It would be a mistake to forget that en.wikipeia is where the bulk of the information exists, the largest community and the source of the most difficult policies i.e. the greatest challenges. However getting data into Wikidata is only half of the problem. To get it out as to ar...zu.Wikpedias without causing chaos -- is what we are here to figure out. -- Bináris Oren Bochman MediaWiki Search Developer.
