  Amir and I talked about it some more. Based on the technical side of it and 
several reusers complaining this is my evaluation:
  
  - We don't remove the labels and descriptions for linked entities completely 
because that is already causing issues on the query service where people are 
trying to get exactly this data
  - We do not default to a specific language or set of languages because that 
will privilege one/some language over others for no good reason.
  - We don*t leave things as they are because both from a technical as well as 
reuser point of view the current situation is not great.
  
  That leaves us with going by request language incl. fallbacks.
  
  To move forward with this we need to follow the stable interface policy 
<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Stable_Interface_Policy#Stable_Data_Formats>.
 This means we make the change, hide it behind a feature flag and turn it off 
initially, announce it incl. having it on on a test system, wait, turn it on in 
production. (Announcement to be coordinated with @Mohammed_Sadat_WMDE)
