The label and the description together are meant to be identifying.
I.e. "Georgia - A country in central Asia", or "Frankfurt - A city in Hesse, Germany", etc.
Additionally, the Wikipedia links provide quite some guidance to it.

The problem I see is that you have no definition to which real object
the data are tied. We agree that the problem is not the interwiki
links per se. It is what results from it. How do we tie data to a
wikidata page when we don't know what it is about?
