no, because wikipedia articles describe what they are about (or get deleted
for lack of substance), wikidata objects often don't say what they are
about (besides the name), they are just a bunch of links to wikipedia
articles in different languages and not too rarely with different content
(you have to decide which linked wikipedia article in which language
defines the object).

Cheers,
Martin
