Consensus edit

See Project chat archive supporting this structure.

[Subsequently decided not to make separate entries for fiber (yarn) and fiber (cloth) since neither AAT, Fairchild's Dictionary of Textiles (Q28888841), nor Wiktionary seem to make this distinction. It saves a lot of work. Will add where Wikipedias require.]

Sample edit

Sort fiber, textile, yarn, cloth/fabric. thread, woven fabric, etc. edit

  •   Fix high level hierarchy
    • fiber (Q161): natural or synthetic substance made of long, thin filaments
    • textile (Q28823): various fiber-based materials = AAT "textile materials"
    • yarn (Q49007): long continuous length of interlocked fibers
    • thread (Q1391831): continuous strand formed of filament fiber or spun, twisted, and plied short fibers, used for sewing and needlework
    • suiting (Q12322209): any of various fabrics, often of worsted or wool-blends, that have body and respond well to traditional tailoring techiques
      • NL "doek" =/= cloth, it's a subclass of woven fabric made from cotton - move it somewhere? (= English "duck") merged with duck (Q1259027)
    • cloth (Q5849500): any textile that is woven, felted, knit, pounded, or otherwise made into a flat piece
  •   Resolve known duplicates
  •   Add AAT IDs & hierarchy
  •   Add other references (e.g. Fairchild's Dictionary of Textiles (Q28888841)) as needed at this level
  •   Add protein fiber (= natural animal fiber or regenerated fibers of protein)
  •   Deal with filament vs. staple
    •   staple (Q17131072): textile fibers of similar short length which must be spun together to form yarn
    •   filament (Q49324053): textile fiber, silk or manufactured, of extreme continuous length
    •  + noil (Q1727258): short textile fiber removed during the combing process in the production of worsted wool, combed cotton, or spun silk

Make Textile Fibre a metaclass edit

  •   Done
  • Check all fibers below and mark with +

Weaving edit

Add:

Make separate items for fiber and textile (yarn/fabric) edit

Natural fibers edit

Animal fibers edit

Plant/Vegetable fibers edit

  plant fiber (Q20026824): fiber from fiber plants and fiber plant (Q1147096): plant grown for fiber

Mineral fibers edit

Synthetic/manufactured fibers edit

Polymer fibers

Fabric or cloth edit

  • Knitted, felted, or woven materials should be <subclass of> cloth (Q5849500) or one (or more) of its many subclasses. There are classes by material used (wool fabric) and by construction (woven fabric, twill).
  • Distinguish between classes of fabrics based on their weaves (e.g. satin (Q14298)) and the weaves themselves (techniques or methods of production e.g. satin weave (Q52544727)).
