Motivation edit
A linked data vocabulary available through the Library of Congress Linked Data Service that would be an additional source of links from Wikidata items. There are terms available here that are not in other Library of Congress vocabularies. UWashPrincipalCataloger (talk) 09:07, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
Discussion edit
Support sounds good, otherwise these terms dont have LoC ids. It seems a bit confusing though, for example legend (Q44342) will then have a link to https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/ethnographicTerms/afset010422.html and https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2014002741.html I guess? --Hannes Röst (talk) 13:58, 10 August 2020 (UTC)- Support useful thesaurus in an interesting area of knowledge Pru.mitchell (talk) 03:08, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
