the information will somewhat depend on bug 66744 but here's what it could look
like:

"Special:ItemByTitle is used for checking if an item already exists in Wikidata
for a given Wikimedia site page.

The left field, "Site:", is where you enter the language and site code for the
Wikimedia site page. For example, if you are searching to see if there is an
item for an article in the English Wikipedia you would enter "enwiki."

For the right field, "Page:", you must put in the exact title of the page as it
appears on its Wikimedia site. This is important for retrieving the right item
because there may be multiple items with the same label in Wikidata. For
example, if you are searching to see if there is an item page for the English
Wikipedia article on capital (the concept referring to non-financial assets),
you must search "capital (economics)"—the title of the page on English
Wikipedia—and not "capital" (which would instead give you the item for the
Wikipedia disambiguation page on capital)."

If there is a list for folks to easily find language + side codes, it may be
useful to also include. All that I am aware of that is similar is the list
available from MediaWiki database dumps here
