  From my understanding the patches above were abandoned because regardless of 
the fact that we can use`wbsetsitelink` API, these change_tags will still have 
to be registered on Wikidata to show up. I think the easiest route will be to 
contact a Wikidata admin to register these tags. Thus, we don't need to use 
this API as a hack to achieve this.
