More and more entities are being linked to a Wikidata entry. In an earlier discussion in march dns_server said [quote=“dns_server, post:9, topic:4196”]

Note that current MB language Wikipedia page excerpt and link from Wikidata is already in place.

On the page for swiss bandleader Cedric Dumont (where wikidata lists wikipedia pages in german, french and japanese) the wikipage shown by default when browsing MusicBrainz in English is the japanese one… Seems to be a bug: IMO the default should go primarily to a language using the same script (here: latin)
But that was in Spring 2015. Where are we now? What is the current policy (if there is any?
