Factors affecting systems selections
- Copyleft 'free to modify' and 'free of cost' software is strongly preferred over other solutions.
- Minimal modifications required could be another preference as that means maintenance of the chosen solution is minimized in that aspect.
Encodings
- Integers w:BASE10 for integers, size depends on available solutions. Escape integer ceiling by bluntly encoding the integer as string of BASE-10 chars, dirty hack but could do the trick.
- Condense URL encoding w:BASE64 and 64 possible characters, exactly 6 bits from w:ISO/IEC 646 (hard compatible with 7-bit ASCII)
- w:UTF-8 encoded w:Unicode for text. UTF-8 is efficient and allows 2^32 different characters.. unless escaped to 40-bit in future revision

Currently using all major free software RDBMS:
Considered databases
- Graph databases and Subject-predicate-object databases seem to perform the same thing just with different architecture and suitability for certain searches. See Talk:Databases for more on this.
Candidates for testing
- All copyleft licensed triplestore and more advanced i.e. graph

Data sources
Data sources: own
- Semantic MediaWiki well thought out and set up on implementation wiki (c.consumerium.org)
- Development Wiki - User database, userspace sharing or importing and Unified Login are being looked at as options.
Data sources: Semantic web
- Other copyleft Semantic MediaWikis
- DBpedia Public SPARQL endpoint of DBpedia.org and Projects and efforts using DBpedia are very relevant.
- Wikidata Public SPARQL endpoint of Wikidata.org (Wikidata Query Service)
