Hi Sandra/Spinster, Yes! This is exactly what I was envisioning.
How does the query build this table -- and can it include stubs and other blue linked articles that still need development? Both blue and red links? I'm sorry I didn't take a more active part in the Community Wishlist Survey. I would have strongly advocated for this. A need for task list automation is something that I have been made aware of only recently via the Black Lunch Table Project. It is a great opportunity to be pro-Wikidata -- to get more people involved in Wikidata from the Wikipedia side, I think.
