For a flat-file database that's available online to a limited number of people,
a spreadsheet is perfectly adequate. It's probably heresy, but Google docs would
work.
If we want a simple, free-form, flat database that is part of the Wikimedia
projects, the Data: namespace on Commons is much easier to set up a database on
than trying to shoehorn random data into Wikidata.
