That isn't exactly what I want.
I would like to have a template {{Foo}} that would return value of
wikidata -> [[Bar]] -> property "Version" where "Bar" is hardcoded, so
no matter of page I include this template on, the value is same. Your
templates are dynamic, changing for every article you use them on.
