Very interesting to me, on several fronts. Glad to know some of the Bodleian's thinking; Wikimedians should be inhaling as much "digital humanities" thinking as they can right now, to reinforce GLAM with the very latest; and I have my own recent metadata hat.

A great read and an important motivation for flexible data models. I am glad that the use cases that are described here are indeed covered by our data model for Wikidata, and your Op-ed is like the perfect motivating article for why we are using such a flexible model. --Denny Vrandečić (WMDE) (talk) 13:25, 3 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
An outside expert discussing issues of importance to Wikipedians - this is a very good type of op-ed article to have on Signpost. Please continue this type of article as a series! Smallbones (talk) 13:55, 3 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
