Label
editCan I rename this property "legal basis" ? It is currently used to mean that some source has some kind of legal value, while "legally established" seems to imply that the source has some kind of chronological precedence. But I do not speak legalese, so I am not sure. --Zolo (talk) 16:36, 28 February 2013 (UTC)
- I agree and have changed it. "legally established by" is kept as an alias. --whym (talk) 10:54, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
- What is the exact difference with laws applied (P3014)? --Hannolans (talk) 09:25, 22 July 2022 (UTC)
Merge with Property:P248
editWhat is the difference with Property:P248 ? Snipre (talk) 19:30, 23 March 2013 (UTC)
- I was not involved in any creation discussion of nether this nor the other item, but I would guess Property:P248 is intended for non-legal references (e.g. books, standards, ...) while this property should only hold legal documents like laws or constitutions. --Faux (talk) 23:01, 23 March 2013 (UTC)
- So these two properties aims the same target: we can merge them. Snipre (talk) 09:32, 30 March 2013 (UTC)
- I don't think that they aims the same target. For example: a country is formally established by the its constitution. That's a legal basis. And that can't be contested. In the other hand, the property stated in can be use with scientific documents, for example, making to ensure the truth of what we say, but there is a probability of that document don't correspond to the truth. In other words, the first is to present the document that establishes (is the base) of the item. The second property is to ensure that the information that is on Wikidata is not an original source, being the references of the Wikidata. If this is the way I'm saying, the first should be a normal property, while the second should be a sources property, but this is just my interpretation of the issue. - Sarilho1 (talk) 17:08, 30 March 2013 (UTC)
- The description currently states "[statement] is established by [law/legal document]", so "x legal basis y" is the same as ["x stated in y" and "y instance of law/legal document"]. If that's the intended meaning, then they should be merged. If not, can you provide an example of "x legal basis y" that means something different from ["x stated in y" and "y instance of law/legal document"]? Silver hr (talk) 04:38, 31 March 2013 (UTC)
- That is the meaning I originally imagined for the property, and I agree it can be merged with "stated in". Yes it is used in another way as well: see Q1065. I think we would need another property for that, any idea about the name ? --Zolo (talk) 07:56, 4 April 2013 (UTC)
- The usage there seems to be something like "foundational document", the difference from "stated in" being that the domain is entities, not statements. Perhaps this property could acquire that meaning, but then the instances where it's used for statements would have to be changed to "stated in". Silver hr (talk) 00:34, 13 April 2013 (UTC)
- I have created P:P457 (foundational text). I will replace P92 with it in relevant cases, but it appears that in some cases, a "member of" property would be needed (as is proposed in Wikidata:Property proposal/Generic) --Zolo (talk) 13:00, 24 April 2013 (UTC)
- I have renamed the property to "main regulatory text" per Wikidata:Requests_for_deletions/Archive/2013/Properties/2 and other discussions. --Zolo (talk) 12:00, 23 July 2013 (UTC)

Deletion proposal
editThis property was proposed for deletion. Please comment at Wikidata:Properties_for_deletion#Property:P92 (legal_basis). Snipre (talk) 15:12, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
- @Snipre: The consensus in Wi idata:Requests_for_deletions/Archive/2013/Properties/2#main_regulatory_text_.28P92.29 was to keep the property P92. But should it be used as source property, as it is still noted here? Examples can be found among this list... --Zuphilip (talk) 10:28, 28 December 2013 (UTC)
- @Zuphilip: The rules for sourcing are available here: adding redundant properties will just complicate the data extraction in wikipedia. Snipre (talk) 14:49, 28 December 2013 (UTC)
- @Snipre: I don't want to use P92 as a sourcing property, actually I wanted to replace P92 with P248 whenever it occurs in the sources. But then I found different information and was not sure how up-to-date they are. Let me ask again: In Help:Sources#Book under point 5. it is mention that one can use other source properties with a link to Special:MyLanguage/Wikidata:List_of_properties/Others: this list contains P92 as a sourcing property. Is this maybe outdated? If yes, we could delete the line and maybe also say it clearly in the description of main regulatory text (P92), e.g. "text setting the main rules by which the subject is regulated (use P248 in sources; use P457 for ??)". --Zuphilip (talk) 17:09, 28 December 2013 (UTC)

--Zuphilip (talk) 09:35, 28 December 2013 (UTC)
- Most of these sourcing examples are useless: I just take an example I know, the swiss federal constitution. There are 3 versions of this document so it is not possible to source with the general item about swiss federal constitution, you need to specify which version is used in order to source correctly. Furthermore the current constitution is updated regularly at least once per year, so this good to specify the retrived date too. The best way to source is to use the rules of help:Sources which allow a standardization of the sources and allow an easiest extraction in wikipedia. Snipre (talk) 15:01, 28 December 2013 (UTC)
- Please note these examples are exactly using P92 not in the sources. IMO the statements
- are saying everything and maybe we don't need for every property a reverse property as well... --Zuphilip (talk) 17:22, 28 December 2013 (UTC)
Constraint on type
editAfter adding a constraint on type [[[Property:P92|main regulatory text (P92)]]], it ended up that the majority of items using this property were in violation... For reference, here is the report that was generated with that constraint: https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Wikidata:Database_reports/Constraint_violations/P92&oldid=290400294. I am removing that constraint altogether. -- LaddΩ chat ;) 13:58, 10 January 2016 (UTC)
Add main regulatory text (P92)property constraint (P2302)value-type constraint (Q21510865) class (P2308)regulation (Q428148)
edit
Currently regulation (Q428148) is not allowed as a value for this property, but it seems it should be. Regulation can be set by non legislative bodies in which case it will not be Xinstance of (P31)regulation (Q428148) and not any of the other allowed values.
I'm going to make the change, if someone wants to roll it back please do and then discuss objections here. Iwan.Aucamp (talk) 19:12, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
