Multi-value constraint

I doubt the multi-value constraint (Q21510857) is useful here. Often there is only one value one can add, e.g. in case there is only one end point of a street (a dead end street) that has and should have a Wikidata item. --Leit (talk) 20:20, 8 February 2020 (UTC) Removed.--Leit (talk) 05:27, 29 March 2020 (UTC)

Subject constraint

I'm not sure what changed where, but the size of Wikidata:Database reports/Constraint violations/P559 doubled on December 20, and every railway service that I've spot-checked that defines its termini is on it (see for example Carolinian (Q283663) or S1 (Q115689931). I think transport service itinerary (Q1067164) ought to be a valid subject. Mackensen (talk) 13:28, 24 December 2022 (UTC)

Recent (2023-08-16) changes to property constraint (P2302): subject type constraint

It appears that roads, streets, alleys etc. (including the Q2172683 example) are now red-flagged - they are not on whitelist. Thoroughfare is, but street is not. Is there a way around it? What's the proper top-level entry that will cover these instances? Retired electrician (talk) 00:13, 22 August 2023 (UTC)
