Hermit crab: WUaS Subject Template, WUaS Subjects' page, and the new, WikiData repository / backend / structured database, written with Wikipedia's 285 languages in mind. How will all entries in English Wikipedia, for example, many of which could become WUaS Subjects, articulate with WUaS, as WUaS builds out subject by subject?

I'm particularly interested in talking about and curious to think through the emerging relationship between a WUaS, wiki, Subject page - see the main, WUaS Subject Template -http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/SUBJECT_TEMPLATE , and the WUaS Subjects' page -  http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Subjects - and the new, WikiData repository / backend / structured database -http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikidata - written with Wikipedia's 285 languages in mind. How will all entries in English Wikipedia, for example, many of which could become WUaS Subjects, articulate with WUaS, as WUaS builds out (presently) subject by subject, - and with plans to build in the same Creative Commons' licensed database? And in all 3,000-8,000 languages?
