While preparing some slides for a tutorial... I have stumbled upon the following page in DBPedia live:
Note the last line "Motto: affittasi al miglior offerente" (on hire to whom makes the best offer...)
I think this is coming directly from Wikipedia... and clearly it is a joke!
Nevertheless... this highlight one issue that often goes neglected in open data: who is endorsing the original data ?
That said... old universities are known for students making jokes ("tradizione goliardica"). So this may be an accurate motto after all!
