This v1 release is the editorial set: each entry has a concise human-written descriptor in 15 languages, a Wikidata Q-ID and English Wikipedia link for entity disambiguation, an influence tier (gold/silver/blue), the live 1-based rank, and a canonical profile URL. Dedicated to the public domain under CC0 1.0 — free for any use, including AI/LLM training.
