Pantone color ID edit
Originally proposed at Wikidata:Property proposal/Creative work
| Description | Pantone Color Code |
|---|---|
| Represents | Pantone color (Q104919542) |
| Data type | External identifier |
| Domain | property |
| Example 1 | Pantone 7406 C (Q97623594) → 7406 C |
| Example 2 | Pantone 448 C (Q24885519) → 448 C |

| Source | https://www.pantone.com/color-systems/pantone-color-systems-explained |
| Planned use | Placing the property under Pantone color items. Should not be used on items for general definitions of colors such as blue (Q1088). Similar general colors could be statements in the Pantone color (Q104919542) though. |
| Number of IDs in source | 12,807[1] |
| Expected completeness | eventually complete (Q21873974) |
| Formatter URL | https://www.pantone.com/color-finder/$1 (dashes will have to replace spaces for each of the IDs. This is to make the URL actually work) |
| Robot and gadget jobs | A bot should be created that creates and maintains the Pantone color items. It could be done using the Pantone API (requires getting permission from Pantone to access though). |
| Distinct-values constraint | yes |
Motivation edit
A user recently added the official color (P462) property to the girl group Twice (Q20645861) and I wanted to look for a reference to make sure it was the official color. I came across this article and it stated that the official colors were based on Pantone. I then seeked to document the color but realized that there was very little items created for the Pantone colors. I also realized that there was no ID property for them.

Support I think inserting the dash instead of a space would be fine here. However if it's decided to keep the spaces, I can help set up the externalid redirection service to fix these links. ArthurPSmith (talk) 19:03, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
- I think the redirect service will be necessary. IDs for colors like 13-1006 TCX exist with a dash in them as their official value. Lectrician1 (talk) 17:39, 21 January 2021 (UTC)
