Motivation edit
I had to revert two edits for Google Play developer ID (P4486) which changed the formatter URL. Comparison of the different formatters:
- Google Play developer ID (P4486): https://play.google.com/store/apps/dev?id=$1
- Google Play developer slug: https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=$1
Creating this property avoids confusion and accidental wrong values for Google Play developer ID (P4486).
If you do not know what slug in the label means, see URL slug on Wikipedia. —Dexxor (talk) 17:08, 24 September 2020 (UTC)

- It seems that a developer on Google Play has either a numeric ID or a slug, but not both. I searched for the regex
\d{19}in the HTML source of [1] but did not find a valid numeric ID. —Dexxor (talk) 14:25, 25 September 2020 (UTC)- Update: Developers on Google Play with a numeric ID also have a slug but not necessarily vice versa. Compare [2] with [3]. —Dexxor (talk) 14:17, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
