Constraint

I've found at least 50 instances where languages have more than one UNESCO AWLD ID, generally for dispersed ethic communities now in different countries. Some of them have as many as four IDs - see Garifuna (Q35490). Should the single-item constraint be removed? - PKM (talk) 21:06, 9 June 2017 (UTC)

PKM, I know we discussed this elsewhere, I'm repeating here for reference. These are most probably dialects, once the entire catalogue has been imported through Mix n' Match we can run a query for items with multiple IDs to find where dialects have been added to the main language item. --John Cummings (talk) 21:47, 24 June 2017 (UTC)

New website

The World Atlas of Languages website has changed its internal structure. Thus all numeric identifiers do not work anymore. The World Atlas of Languages now use plain text identifier for its language. See for example Ukrainian Sign Language. I think we should create a new property to handle this new URL format, migrate all identifier to the new property and then declare this property as obsolete.
