kaldari added a comment. Of the options presented by Filceolaire, #2 (for short term) and #3 (for long term) seem the best. @Lydia_Pintscher, do you think supporting some type of comment syntax for the description field would be doable? I would recommend that the API strip out these comments by default, and only show them if specifically requested (for the Wikidata suggestion UI for example).
FWIW, I tried to drum up support for just banning usage instructions from descriptions at https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Help_talk:Description, but the community was opposed to it since there was no where else useful to put them.
