MediaWiki.org should be a client of Wikidata.org, and have access to interwiki links and data access. Use cases: * [[mw:Template:Tracked]] should link to [[Template:Tracked]] * Convert things like [[mw:Template:Extension]] to use structured data through Wikidata properties ** That data could then be used by Extension:ExtensionDistributor, among other things ** See bug 46704 comment 33 as well https://www.mail-archive.com/wikidata-l@lists.wikimedia.org/msg03534.html was a brief discussion about it, Denny recommended using SMW, however that has previously been WONTFIXED.
Putting extension-related information into wikidata.org seems inappropriate though, the same way that putting metainformation about individual files from Commons onto wikidata.org is inappropriate. Maybe it should be a wikidata local-only repo?
