Support. This looks like a useful set of of identifiers.YULdigitalpreservation (talk) 12:01, 3 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Voll: Do you have a reason why this property should be called code instead of ID? (most of our authority control properties are called ID) ChristianKl (talk) 22:45, 14 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@ChristianKl:, ID is OK for me. --Voll (talk) 10:00, 15 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Voll: Okay, I changed the name. The property still needs a description before it's ready. ChristianKl (talk) 12:08, 21 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Question Is this identifier any different from Latvian entries for Natura 2000 site ID (P3425)? Lymantria (talk) 09:55, 24 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- @Voll:? Lymantria (talk) 11:30, 30 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  - @Lymantria:, Natura 2000 site ID (P3425) in Latvia is subset for the requested property. Natura 2000 in Latvia includes 333 territories [1], but we have aprrox. 700 Latvian Protected Nature Territories now and about 2000 protected trees. --Voll (talk) 17:44, 30 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    - @Voll: Can you add an example of a not Natura 2000 area with its Latvian Protected Nature Territory ID? Lymantria (talk) 20:22, 30 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
      - @Lymantria:, I've done it. Thank you for the comment, I didn't think about such correct case. As you can see, no such Natura 2000 site. --Voll (talk) 20:25, 31 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
        Ok, Thanks. Support. Lymantria (talk) 06:08, 1 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
