Module to display an icon with a tooltip such as "Edit this at Wikidata"
Icon will be linked to the Wikidata entry for the article where this is placed.
This message is only displayed if a local_parameter is not supplied, i.e. when called from a template, it can be coded not to display the message when a local parameter is in use, preventing the value form Wikidata being fetched.
The qid of a Wikidata entry can optionally be supplied for testing outside the article.
Usage
To always display the icon:
{{#invoke:EditAtWikidata|showMessage}}
To display the icon depending on a local parameter not existing:
