What makes you think that this is the identifer for the document and not 32013L0036? Does the European Union have a documentation that says that "dir" is part of the name of the identifer? ChristianKl ❪✉❫ 20:26, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It is the document type in the implementation by EU institutions. See https://op.europa.eu/en/publication-detail/-/publication/8159b75d-5efc-11e8-ab9c-01aa75ed71a1. French ELI ids look like this: http://legifrance.gouv.fr/eli/loi/2014/10/13/2014-1170/jo/texte and the general prefix seems to be: {typedoc}/{year}/{natural_number}/ followed by implementation specific endings e.g. "http://data.europa.eu/eli/{typedoc}/{year}/{natural_number}/oj <- canonical ELI to identify a directive or regulation in EU" So9q (talk) 09:14, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Weak oppose I'm not really sure why would we need this property because we already have CELEX number (P476) (it's the "32013L0036" ChristianKl mentioned) and full work available at URL (P953) where we could add the ELI URL. P953 is useful because it is used e.g. by Template:Cite Q (Q22321052). Samoasambia ✎ 14:33, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

European Legislation Identifier is basically a common URL and metadata format for laws in EU member states and the EU itself. Here's a few examples: http://data.finlex.fi/eli/sd/1734/4, http://data.europa.eu/eli/dir/2013/36/oj, https://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/eli/loi/2023/4/14/2023-270/jo/texte, https://www.retsinformation.dk/eli/lta/2014/1603. Some of the URLs are actual pages and some of them just redirects. Unfortunately there does not seem to be any central domain from which you could be redirected to the right national database, so ELI properties would have to be done separately for each country (and the EU itself).
