Hoi, Wikidata has a limit of one link of a Wikipedia article to Wikidata. There is no such thing as a compulsory minimum of two articles. As a matter a fact there are many Wikidata items that have no relations to Wikipedia articles. To make this even more obvious, Wikidata also links to Commons and Wikivoyage. This means that Wikidata is not Wikipedia centric.
The main point of Wikidata is that its information can be used in our projects, that it is useful in bringing the sum of all knowledge to our readers. That it does. There are a number of Wikipedias who use the information of Wikidata for their stubs. Consequently when the information of the subjects of these articles are enriched in Wikidata, new information flows into these Wikipedias. Thanks, GerardM

first for the interlanguage links but it would be great to have some community members helping to shepherd them and find good uses for their data. Oliver's your man! <runs away>
I notice with Wikidata-based interwikis, there's now an enforced 1-1 relationship between related articles in different wikis. Which is not *always* accurate, but is considerably easier to machine-analyse.
