Name

If the allowed values of this property are bands, why name it "transmitted signal"? The corresponding template parameter also is named with the term "band" - why change it to "signal"?--Anders Feder (talk) 15:40, 25 June 2016 (UTC)
Since the property description defines it as "the type of signals a machinery can emit", and that seems most useful, that is what I've renamed it to.[1]--Anders Feder (talk) 15:57, 25 June 2016 (UTC)
And consequently I've removed the limitation to "bands" because that was never either in the name of the property or its definition in the description.[2]--Anders Feder (talk) 16:00, 25 June 2016 (UTC)

broaden this property?

This property came up as a useful qualifier for Wikidata:Property proposal/attenuation coefficient - however the present description seems to limit the scope so that wouldn't be applicable. Is it ok with the people who proposed this to broaden the scope for this purpose? It doesn't seem to have been used much so far for the original purpose anyway...

@Tobias1984, Paperoastro, Danrok, Jakec: as proposers and creator; @Anders Feder, Thibdx: as others interested. ArthurPSmith (talk) 17:33, 17 October 2018 (UTC)

I propose to broaden the scope of this property in Wikidata:Property proposal/sends & receives. --Push-f (talk) 03:48, 29 October 2022 (UTC)
