This article has me wondering how I can use this. Here's the origin, from last November: " I created a custom taxonomy to use as an index of people mentioned. I wanted it to work nicely as linked data, and so wanted each term in it to refer to the wikidata identifier for the person mentioned. Then I thought, why not get the data for the terms from wikidata?" This article is the follow-up. When the term is used to tag a post, it looks up WikiData and embeds machine readable metadata into the page. If you look at the source of this sample entry you can see the WikiData information embedded into the page HTML using schema.org tags.
