Sorry if my answer is off-topic but if metadata are stored in WIkidata, is it
really needed to create index pages to store the same data as Wikidata?

Think about all the scientific literature, or Phd thesis. These files (if

wikicommunity.
We already have some means to link those text to their source (with a URL).
