Template:Claim

Template documentation

Creates a formatted claim, including an object, a property, and a value, as well as (optionally) qualifiers and rank.

Usage

The template can be invoked as either Claim or its abbreviation, C.

Simple example

Parameters 1-3 are interpreted as object, property, and value, respectively:

• {{Claim|Q42|P31|Q5}}

⟨ Douglas Adams (Q42)    ⟩ instance of (P31) ⟨ human (Q5)    ⟩

Use identifiers (P<digits> or Q<digits>), full URLs, or just the numerical IDs to refer to entities and properties

• {{Claim|https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q42|31|Q5}}

⟨ Douglas Adams (Q42)    ⟩ instance of (P31) ⟨ human (Q5)    ⟩

Use any label for properties

• {{Claim|Q42|instance of|Q5}}

⟨ Douglas Adams (Q42)    ⟩ instance of (P31) ⟨ human (Q5)    ⟩

...but only in English

• {{Claim|Q42|Bild|File:Douglas adams portrait cropped.jpg}}

⟨ Douglas Adams (Q42)    ⟩ Bild Search ⟨ Douglas adams portrait cropped.jpg ⟩

Qualifiers

Any pair of two additional parameters after the third turns into a qualifier and value:

• {{C|Q1001|P27|Q1775277|P580|1869}}

⟨ Mahatma Gandhi (Q1001)    ⟩ country of citizenship (P27) ⟨ Dominion of India (Q1775277)    ⟩
start time (P580) ⟨ 1869 ⟩

Here, as well, English labels can be used for qualifier properties:

• {{C|Q181803|P161|Q81328|character role|Q51802}}

⟨ Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of the Jedi (Q181803)    ⟩ cast member (P161) ⟨ Harrison Ford (Q81328)    ⟩
character role (P453) ⟨ Han Solo (Q51802)    ⟩

Without parameters

• {{C}}

⟨ subject ⟩  Wikidata property  ⟨ object or value ⟩

Special values

no value and some value will display in the user's language:

• {{C|Q9696|P157|some value}}

⟨ John F. Kennedy (Q9696)    ⟩ killed by (P157) ⟨ unknown value Help ⟩

• {{C|Q1140947|P3373|no value}}

⟨ Rory Gilmore (Q1140947)    ⟩ sibling (P3373) ⟨ no value Help ⟩

• {{C||27/12/|1978}}

⟨ subject ⟩ 12/27 Search ⟨ 1978 ⟩

• {{C||date of birth|some value|rank=Preferred}}
• ⟨ subject ⟩ date of birth (P569) unknown value Help
