- you can convert a list of Wikipedia wiki links to links to Wikidata using Lua.
- you can check if there is an article on THIS Wikipedia
- you will show the Wikidata data when there is no article
He even said that it is not hard to do and provided this as a pointer.
I am preparing a Wikidata workshop and I would be REALLY pleased when this list was available doing all the song and dance mentioned above. There are so many other lists that could benefit from this as well.
I am convinced that such functionality will motivate people to write stubs and articles on subjects that are important to them. I am also convinced that it is a powerful incentive to create data that accomplishes things like this.
Thanks,

Being able to retrieve information about other an article is not needed at first..
What is needed is the name of an article in the language of the wiki.
Thanks,
Gerard
