I know that, but indeed that does not preclude deeper collaboration and
synchronisation of Wikidata datas and other resources, and that’s the
status of those potential collaboration and their maturity/workflow I’m
interested in. Liking is useful of course but things happens also on
Wikidata like data curation, duplicates entry identification on the
external database working with their identifiers if it occurs that the same
Wikidata item has two identifiers (for example :
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q539#P1015 has two values at the post time).
I’m interested to know if this potential is exploited by some workflow
authority control organisation by a periodic review/report of comparison of
their datas against Wikidata community differences. And conversely if we
imported datas from a datasource, if the changes made on the original live
data source are reflected on the Wikidata datas.
