I think this is a good thing, but ideally no bot would be required: if no article in your language, show all the facts from wikidata, eg http://tools.wmflabs.or

  There's a proposal to create 'virtual' articles from Wikidata: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikidata/Notes/Article_generation http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikidata/Notes/Article_genera... The benefit of this is that articles would be dynamically synthesised from the latest data when the user requests them, and not actually created and added to the wiki. This would prevent the creation of a potentially infinite number of articles on subjects not significant enough to merit a write-up by a human author, so could be a way to combat the 'bot inflation' of article numbers. I don't think anyone's started work on it yet, but if someone fancies it...
