Further to the below, this query https://w.wiki/DFDJ using a random
sample finds that
* about 9.7% of items without statements have no wikipedia links.
That's about 80,000 items, which is more than Yaron Koren found --
probably because I'm only including sitelinks to actual wikipedias, not
wikisource wikivoyage or wikicommons.
* about 86% have one wikipedia link (713,000 items)
* 3.5% have two wikipedia links (29,000 items), 0.3% (about 2500 items)
have three wikipedia links
So to fix these items will require analysing what information can be
extracted from the wiki articles.

There are currently 829k of them.

The first half-dozen or so I checked all also have a
Wikipedia link in
one or more languages.
Maybe it would be worth making a query for each of the top,
say twenty
languages and posting on the relevant Village Pump?
Or having an article or talk page template added by a bot,
to each
affected article?

Also, here is a query to get the true "duds" - no statements, no
lexemes, and no Wikipedia/Wikimedia articles - it looks like there are
about 8,000 of these, so thankfully not really an "elephant":
