data = pywikibot.DataPage(dataSite, 'Q1234')
lang='fa'

Message:
you first must call
data.get()
before changing a DataPage,otherwise the DataPage.title() is unknown

btw: there is difference between changing an entity and making a item. I'm
working on making an item via API, but John Blad (API manager of wikidata)
is in the vaction. I'll add this feature to the PWB ASAP

Message:
you may also use
data = wikipedia.DataPage(1234)
for creating the repository Page
or
site = wikipedia.getSite()
data = wikipedia.DataPage(site.data_repository(), "Q1234")

you must run it in this way:
site=wikipedia.getSite('fa',fam='wikipedia')
page=wikipedia.Page(site,'تست')
data=wikipedia.DataPage(page)
data.setitem(summary,items={'type': u'item', 'label': lang, 'value':
fa_title})
data.setitem(summary,items={'type': u'sitelink', 'site': lang, 'title':
fa_title})
