| Description | MISSING |
|---|---|
| Represents | mirror image (Q2703478) |
| Data type | qualifier?-invalid datatype (not in Module:i18n/datatype) |
| Domain | property |
| Example 1 | Q30171963 ("based on")-> designates a left-right mirror flip. This is common in engravings of artworks. |
| Example 2 | Most examples of Q179744 (daguerrotypes) are a mirror image compared to real life, so it might be useful here. |
| Example 3 | MISSING |
| Planned use | Q110141639 is an obvious option |
| Expected completeness | Hard to predict. I'd imagine we can hope for some degree of completeness, but there's always the risk of lost artworks |
| Robot and gadget jobs | Probably not. |
Motivation edit
Felt weird to find the source of an engraving, note it was a copy, but - as engravings often were - mirror flipped, and to have no way to note this. Adam Cuerden (talk) 23:11, 20 May 2022 (UTC)
Discussion edit
- This seems like a Boolean property you are requesting? Generally I think that would be handled by something like has characteristic (P1552) mirror image (Q2703478). ArthurPSmith (talk) 16:10, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
- Yes. Perhaps as a qualifier to the based on (P144) statement. Jheald (talk) 11:47, 25 May 2022 (UTC)
Oppose Per ArthurPSmith's comment.— The Erinaceous One 🦔 05:20, 10 August 2022 (UTC)- Oppose: poorly thought out proposal: if it's only for 1 or 2 examples or or a handful of exceptions, that's not a reason to generate a new property. And on principle, NO property should be approved if the nominator can't even give one explicit example of intended usage on an existing item. -Animalparty (talk) 04:41, 27 October 2022 (UTC)
