exception for nonprofit orgs? edit
Manatee County Florida Democratic Party (Q99522251) has a "Community Service/Non-Profit" Yelp page that would be useful to record in Wikidata. Can an exception be made for this type? -- M2545 (talk) 08:30, 23 September 2020 (UTC)
- I don't think that would make much sense unless the WikiData entry was meant to represent the geographic location or building. But instead that entry is meant to represent the political organization. The building would have to be a separate entry imo Tr3ndyBEAR (talk) 22:30, 6 December 2022 (UTC)
Yelp's internal IDs vs their URL "slugs" edit
Most instances of this useage use the URL slugs not the actual ID that Yelp uses internally.
For example, for Tom's restaurant the Yelp internal id is actually 6nOxwnuN0ZwLX3h3JYSJnA. And this works as a URL as well:
https://www.yelp.com/biz/6nOxwnuN0ZwLX3h3JYSJnA
Yelp takes this id and converts it to a slug to make the urls more readable so we end up with
https://www.yelp.com/biz/toms-restaurant-new-york
However, relying on this slug is much less stable imo. First of all, we don't really know how Yelp generates these or how it handles multiple restaurants with similar names or how stable they are. The internal IDs are guaranteed to always remain the same and not change.
Second of all, this slug is less useful as "data" (as in WikiData). If I'm building an app that wants to parse WikiData and map certain entries to certain properties from Yelp's dataset[1] I need the ID not the slug! And for end-users it doesn't really matter which we use for the url since they map to the same page. The negative impacts of using slugs instead of ids are on people who want to use WikiData as an actual DATAset
