qualifier

edit

In addition to the list of present qualifiers I will add the in work (P2553) because it's necessary when P742 is used to show pen name (Q127843). See an example of real situation in the journalist Eugeni Xammar (Q1373218), who wrote with different names in different media. If there is no arguments against, I'll assume it's OK.

+1, let's see how it plays out. --Sannita - not just another it.wiki sysop 14:24, 2 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

use as qualifier

edit

Uses such as this should probably use applies to name of subject (P5168) instead? Thoughts? It looks like most usages of this property as a qualifier can be moved to other properties, like subject named as (P1810) for performer statements. Based on the previous I've added a suggestion constraint to use this property as main value. --Azertus (talk) 22:06, 13 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

handle

edit

Should "handle" be added to the English "also known as" column? Epoch qwert (talk) 04:59, 25 March 2025 (UTC)Reply
