Tagging potentially interested users from the proposal discussion - @Jarekt, Mike Peel, Multichill: - there is a related discussion at Wikidata:Project_chat#Church_building_azimuth. The proposal by Tagishsimon would require change of current constraints (as qualifier (Q54828449) would be too restrictive) as well as a minor change in property description to reflect that it's not only for media files.

@Vojtěch Dostál: sounds like a good plan. It's always easier to expand the scope of a property than to reduce it. Multichill (talk) 19:13, 23 August 2021 (UTC)
