WIkidata and Global Profile.

By chance Wikidata[1] could be a substitute for the Global Profile[2]?
Because at least from what I understand it would not take much to implement
this.
I do not know if I'm talking nonsense, but I would be happy if it was done.

I believe Wikidata could be used for something like this, but it's a
question whether the Wikidata community would want it.

Possibly!

Though, let's be clear that you mean one way of implementing Global
Profile, not a substitute for it. Either way, there would be engineering
work to do. Just, a bit less of it this way around.
