subclass of edit

subclass of (P279) hierarchy (Q188619) translates as "subclass of" "hierarchy". A division is not a hierarchy, though it is a unit of a hierarchy. (In some places like Sweden of course, it's not a hierarchy....) Is there a better item we can use for the subclass claim? --Izno (talk) 22:05, 4 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

In English "division" means both unit and hierarchy. Most articles here is about the system not the units. hierarchy of administrative territorial entities (Q4057633) (and above) is about units. Infovarius (talk) 18:28, 9 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
Except it doesn't. Among none of the synonyms nor definitions here is 'hierarchy' included. --Izno (talk) 22:01, 9 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
"State of being divided" assumes at least 1 level of hierarchy, isn't it? And country is usually administratively divided several times so we get a full hierarchy. But if you don't suppose it's right you can move en-link to Q4057633 which contains units of hierarchy solely. --Infovarius (talk) 07:20, 14 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
No... it doesn't. I have no intention of moving the en link. I have no idea where you're coming from, because you're just not making any sense. On top of that, there are two editors who think you are wrong. --Izno (talk) 16:18, 14 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
From what I can tell of the links, almost every one talks about administrative division, not administrative hierarchy. So if there's any page not correct, we should split that from this item (and merge back in administrative units), as this item is used in every case that I've seen as meaning 'administrative unit', as you term it. --Izno (talk) 20:17, 16 September 2013 (UTC)Reply
Ok, I revert "subclass of hierarchy". But about splitting - I've already split it into Q4057633. There's some substantial problem in linking by properties because actually there are 3 types of entities: 1) administrative division as a system; 2) subdivision unit (its definition, wording, history?); 3) list of units (subnational, 2nd level and so on). In many languages 2 is not described separately in articles and joined with either 1 or 3. If saying "2+3" is subclass of subdivision unit is quite correct, making the same statements about articles containing also description of a full hierarchy. See for example province of Turkey - was a complete mess between articles about system and about 1st level units (provinces or vilayets). Infovarius (talk) 12:00, 18 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

administrative territorial entity edit

Since

  • it is in the tree "territorial entity" and not in "hierarchy"
  • and all the instances are territorial entities

I renamed to "administrative territorial entity". Androoox (talk) 03:02, 24 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

Special:WhatLinksHere/Q56061 edit

Special:WhatLinksHere/Q56061 probably should not have concrete entities as instances.

I checked Q1646651 and found the User:TarzanASG. Removing instance of "Krai of the Soviet Union"

The query would be "claim[31:56061]" and that should probably be empty. Huk700 (talk) 01:58, 27 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

@Infovarius: could you help emptying "claim[31:56061]"? Huk700 (talk) 01:59, 27 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for pinging. I'll try to help. --Infovarius (talk) 21:04, 31 July 2015 (UTC)Reply
@Huk700:. I was thoroughly working with items from this query (adding dates, upper divisions, countries...) but someone, may be 91.9.127.198, run through them rapidly. At least the query is almost empty now... --Infovarius (talk) 18:46, 7 October 2015 (UTC)Reply
