Dear Universitians and friends,
I'm very glad CC World University and School (WUaS)'s donation of CC WUaS to CC Wikidata made it into this weekly [Wikidata] weekly summary #182 - see, too:
(see, too: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikidata/Newsletter#Wikidata_weekly_summary_.23182).
I think WUaS will begin to become part of the Wikidata workflow, and WUaS will therefore gain coders and language teams.
And since this is all unfolding organizations-wise and I have the vision for WUaS, I hope WUaS will continue to develop the "front end" while Wikidata develops WUaS's "back end."
In addition, World University and School plans to accredit first in the state of California with WASC senior / BPPE or similar, as well as for a first online law school.
