Jeff Young - OCLC Research
While I like the idea of mocking up LCSH in a Wikibase instance, I think that basing it on Nomen (as opposed to "concepts" or "entities") is misguided and substantially increases confusion rather than resolving it.
I understand and agree that Access Control Points are fundamental to MARC (and community localization in general) and that Wikidata isn't a substitute. I would vehemently argue, though, that most of problems being addressed here CAN be solved using a RWO-oriented Wikibase model combined with enforcement of immutable labels. It would be easier to demonstrate the pros and cons with examples and historical context than explain in words, but I'll save those for later.
