[directory-discuss] DBpedia - open data sets and the FSD

The DBpedia project aims to interconnect the world's open data sets. I made a new page in the FSD (which needs to be approved) to suggest a strategy for making the FSD interoperable with WikiPedia and by extension, the DBpedia. 

See https://directory.fsf.org/wiki?title=Org:DBpedia&oldid=41365

(I created the page in the 'Org' namespace to separate it from the Directory proper.)

The act of creating a 'meta' page (a page about the wiki and not an content page) reveals that it is *very* difficult to do so.  Normally, the so-called project namespace is used for 'meta' content and the main namespace is used for regular wiki content.  In the FSD, the current documentation about the directory is actually contained within the same namespace as the software entries themselves; and that namespace is separate from the Main namespace. [1]

For example, I found this 'Features' page which I cleaned up for formatting [2]

Separately, there are a ton of entries which need to be reviewed/approved. [3]
