1) Gap:
I do agree it would be good to promote these backlogs, as two of the
easiest ones for newcomers to work on. (Although there are guidelines and
best-practices, and any backlog promotion should clearly point to those
documentation pages, so that newcomers can have a ready-reference).
2) Translation
I also agree that a machine-translation /suggestion/ or /hint/ would be a
nice option. The main concern is users who don't understand the limitations
of machine-translation and whom must resist the urge to just copy&paste.
(This goes for both language-fluency, but also for technical-vocabulary
fluency, e.g. I could not give a confident description of most chemistry or
physics articles, even with numerous machine-translation-based suggestions
or the article itself!)
I can't see anything specifically about this in Phabricator, so it's
probably worth filing a feature request, unless someone else points out a
task I missed, or raises an overwhelming concern. [Note: a semi-related
task to link in the SeeAlso of the new one: T71345]
3) Tools:
Is it currently possible to get a list of items without a label/description
in language X?
I tried a few weeks ago, and the onwiki Special pages were broken. I filed
https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T157884 "Nothing loads on
Special:EntitiesWithoutDescription
or Special:EntitiesWithoutLabel results" to cover this problem.
Ah, I now see https://tools.wmflabs.org/wikidata-terminator/ ? which works
for missing descriptions.
However the "with missing labels" set of links seems to be broken for most
languages. Sjoerd filed
https://bitbucket.org/magnusmanske/wikidata-todo/ issues/45/terminator-top-1000- linked-items-with
and I've added some example links.
The other set of links that are listed, are all outdated (
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_Labels_ and_descriptions#List_of_ items_without_labels_and.2For_ descriptions
and below)
I wonder if we should add a link to
https://tools.wmflabs.org/wikidata-game/distributed/# ("Kaspar'sgame=23
Persondata game: Descriptions") in that list? AFAIK it only contains
English suggestions though.
Are there any other tools which help with listing or processing these
particular backlogs?

It should be possible, perhaps even preferred, to show translation of the most
common descriptions, done on translatewiki. Thus all the descriptions like
"Wikipedia disambiguation page", "Wikimedia category" etc could be visible in
all languages.
