Motivation

edit

The New Mithraeum Database is centered around ancient artefacts and temples (mithraeum) around Mithras. It is still a growing project as there is each year new discoveries about Mithras' cult. This new property would be a great addition to Wikidata as Mithras is one of the most studied god in Antiquity.

  • leaning   Oppose, as I have troubles to determine the scientific nature of the website. The editor http://accademiaromana.org/ (not to be confused with Academia Romana (Q338400)) seems to be some kind of New Age society, to which I'm not sure that we should associate. Anyway, the website hosts at least two databases, so the property should make clear that this is about the Monuments, not the Persons one. --Jahl de Vautban (talk) 19:11, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @Jahl de Vautban It is a crowdsourcing database, but it establishes URI for mithraeum and artefacts revolving across Mithras' cult. Many scholars such as Csaba T. Szabó (Q47506530) are participating in this database which also contains quality informations about localisation, discrovery date, epigraphic concordance across different databases, etc. If the database doesn't look science-based on the surface, the information it contains is rooted in scientific literature.
    You are right that this property should only include the Monuments and not the Persons, thanks for the comment! Liber008 (talk) 19:46, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
