-1 to this kind of redundancy (or outsourcing of definition authority, if the 
only description are wikidata references). Imho we should stick to self 
contained tags for describing things. Referring to related (instance) objects 
in third party open databases is fine, but we should not use foreign classes as 
tags, it should be possible by using just our tags to find out what something 
is. Our tags are human readable, and we should not give this up.
