Mixed bean sprouts

Some of this work includes to install extensions and technical improvements. We will try this out on the Wikispore test: environment.

Stage 3: Wikidata links to Wikispore

• Wikidata property: Wikispore ID

Stage 4: Wikimedia Toolforge integration

• metawikimedia:Reasonator
• Custom Wikidata front end with infobox-like functionality, perhaps based on SQID
• Subject-based Wikidata item form generator
• Mbabel page draft generator from Wikidata item
• Languages greater support

Stage 5: Wikidata federation
