Represents a separate property for companies that have been removed from the Metacritic database for unknown reasons. All links that once led to company IDs no longer work (example), however the good news is that there are over 10,000 archived links left, so the formatter URL in this case accordingly is set to Wayback Machine. Once the property is created, the plan is to move identifiers with company/ prefix from the current generic Metacritic ID (P1712) property to the new proposed one. For more details see Wikidata talk:WikiProject Video games#Metacritic (IMPORTANT UPDATE). Regards Kirilloparma (talk) 18:25, 30 September 2023 (UTC)

•  Support Yes, absolutely. I can understand if creating properties for "dead" identifiers turns out controversial, but I’m all for it. Jean-Fred (talk) 08:32, 2 October 2023 (UTC)
