Motivation edit
Featherbase (Q125117957) is a key resource for information related to feathers. It currently has information about ca. 1900 bird species, organized by taxonomic group and geographic location. They do not provide identifiers per se (other than for their "specimens") but their URL patterns are consistent enough to allow them to be used as such for practical purposes. The formatter URL contains an indicator of the language in which they provide information on the page. Currently, they have pages in English ("en"), French ("fr") and German ("de"), and I suggest to use the English one as the canonical version for the purpose of this Wikidata property. --Daniel Mietchen (talk) 21:37, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
