Motivation[edit]

Data Commons is Google's project to aggregrate, clean, reconcile and merge openly available data from various sources. One of those sources is Wikidata. Data Commons already includes Wikidata IDs in its graph; it would be useful if Wikidata included Data Commons IDs in its graph. Note that Data Commons IDs are distinct from Google Knowledge Graph IDs. Rybesh (talk) 15:49, 29 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
