Support. Clearly of great significance. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 12:46, 29 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Support, of course. I actually wanted to propose this myself, but Richard Arthur Norton came first :) --Edgars2007 (talk) 10:12, 30 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- I have been scooped on other properties too! I hope we can automate the migration of the urls. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 17:09, 1 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  - I can import them when property will get approved. --Edgars2007 (talk) 10:25, 4 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Changed formatter URL a little bit, we usually don't put ".html" in ID. + Changed datatype to external ID. But I think, that we can put "physics/laureates/1921/einstein" (without "-bio"). In this case, we can later choose another formatter URL without problems (to let's say Facts section). --Edgars2007 (talk) 05:59, 1 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ Modified accordingly. Note that there are a number of pages for each person, for example:

with the "-facts" page being primary. Not all laureates have all pages; [1] has just four, for instance. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 14:01, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Note that the IDs are not unique either. People or organisations who have won the Nobel Prize several times have several different pages (e.g. https://www.nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/physics/laureates/1956/bardeen-facts.html and https://www.nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/physics/laureates/1972/bardeen-facts.html), also if they have won it in different categories (e.g. https://www.nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/physics/laureates/1903/marie-curie-facts.html and https://www.nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/chemistry/laureates/1911/marie-curie-facts.html). The number of those is limited of course, but technically this is not an ID per person but one per person and award. --YMS (talk) 11:05, 6 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
