  The project namespace is for internal stuff like discussions and policies for 
editors. Reader-facing stuff like entries and the main page is best placed in a 
content namespace like the mainspace. As noted on  
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WIT/Resources/Wiktionary-missing_Wikidata_sitelinks,
 the main page being in project space is the exception, not the rule 
(approximately one third of main pages are in the project namespace, and 
probably quite a few of these are precisely to work this bug around).

  Apart from it being a workaround rather than a solution IMO, please don’t 
encourage people to put random stuff in Common.js. It’s not necessary either – 
just allow Wikidata do its job: remove `{{noexternallanglinks}}` if it’s 
present. This hack is a remnant from times before Wikidata and compact language 
links, when maintaining language links was a pain, and displaying all language 
links resulted in a mess. It’s no longer necessary.
