Motivation

TrueAchievements (Q7847301) is a database of video game (Q7889), mostly published on Xbox (but also Windows). It also has downloadable content (Q1066707) − I don’t think they warrant their own property though, so I integrate them here (we currently consider DLCs a subclass of video games). A little usage on English Wikipedia. The data model is per platform-realization, so there may be more than one entry for our Q7889 items. Jean-Fred (talk) 18:23, 24 January 2020 (UTC)

•  Comment Aaarg, realised there is a numerical ID system which does resolves, eg Observer (Q25340021) → 6599. However, it does not work for DLCs. Meanwhile, there is a parallel ID system “Product ID”, which has a wider scope (also includes bundles), but does work for both games and DLCs (eg 27037)… Not too sure how best to proceed... Jean-Fred (talk) 12:08, 2 April 2020 (UTC)

  @Jean-Frédéric: My suggestion would be to edit this property proposal to be for the numeric game ID and then create another for the numeric product ID. Jc86035 (talk) 11:46, 8 April 2020 (UTC)

• Withdrawing this − will likely follow Jc86035 advice and make new proposals. Jean-Fred (talk) 18:30, 28 March 2021 (UTC)
