TASK DESCRIPTION
  In the Wikimedia Incubator, there are test wikis for multiple projects and 
languages all collected in one wiki. Due to intentional design limitations in 
Wikidata, only one page from each wiki can be connected to an item. However, in 
the Wikimedia Incubator, there can be dozens of pages that would belong to the 
same Wikidata item, but in different languages (and/or projects). In order for 
pages like this to be able to benefit from Wikidata to fetch interlanguage 
links and data to populate infoboxes, we could have a parser function that 
tells the software that this page should fetch relevant data from item X.
  
  The current situation is that the relationship only goes one way, that is 
Wikidata -> client wiki. This parser function would let it go the opposite way.
  
  This would be useful for:
  
  - Wikimedia Incubator
  - Multilingual Wikisource
  - Beta Wikiversity
  - Possibly also other multilingual wikis that have pages in more than one 
language on the same topic
  
  Other relevant bugs:
  T54971: [Goal] Sitelinks and arbitrary accesses to Incubator, OldWikisource 
and BetaWikiversity <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T54971>
  T206426: Storing multiple sitelinks to a multilingual wiki 
<https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T206426>
  
  I'll add a suggestion for implementation in the comments.
