it’s fairly common for works (especially works of art) to have the label in a 
different language (for example, Q1061035 
<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1061035>’s German label is //La trahison des 
images//, the French title), and if I understand correctly this would be the 
label of an item for the citation, which should qualify as a work.
