mul for identifiers
editHey Midleading, thanks for creating the IATI organisation ID (P13305). Why is it a bad idea to add a mul-statement to this identifier? It is the official-used name by the initiative. Best NGOgo (WikiProject Nonprofits!) 09:45, 17 February 2025 (UTC)
- There isn't enough labels in multiple languages yet to decide which one is the most common, and mul label is not a place for official label. Midleading (talk) 09:48, 17 February 2025 (UTC)
- I can live with that. But since the idea of mul is to reduce redundancy, I think for an international identifier, that is mainly used in English the fallback would be okay instead of waiting for multiple simmilar descriptions. Best NGOgo (WikiProject Nonprofits!) 10:55, 17 February 2025 (UTC)
- Judging from many other properties I have created so far, there isn't a common label that can be used by identifier properties. The word "identifier" has to be translated into various languages, so these labels are not the same. Midleading (talk) 13:41, 17 February 2025 (UTC)

National Trust Heritage Records ID
editNational Trust Heritage Records ID (P13301), which you kindly created for us on the 16th of Feb, still does not have the hyperlinks active. Can it be poked to get them working? Vicarage (talk) 06:48, 25 February 2025 (UTC)
- It works for me. Could you please test it logged out or on another computer? Midleading (talk) 07:42, 25 February 2025 (UTC)
- Confirmed no link for Spalding Priory (Q7572987) under Brave on Linux logged in (my usual setup), for Brave and Firefox there logged out, and on Android and Windows (spit!) Brave logged out. Vicarage (talk) 08:07, 25 February 2025 (UTC)
- Yeah, quite strange. The link works for me but I use a very unusual interface language (Vahcuengh). When I switch to English, the links are gone. Could be a server or cache problem. I'm not administrator so I can't help you. Midleading (talk) 08:25, 25 February 2025 (UTC)
- The admins fixed it with a purge. https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Administrators%27_noticeboard#c-Andrei_Stroe-20250225104300-Vicarage-20250225083300 Vicarage (talk) 11:29, 25 February 2025 (UTC)
