Motivation edit

There are two items of compound bow and recurve bow in the World Archery Championship, so I propose this attribute to better improve the item information. 轻语者 (talk) 10:58, 25 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion edit

Comment This seems awfully specific. What about just the generic term uses (P2283) (or maybe armament (P520) or another alternative like item operated (P121))? ArthurPSmith (talk) 20:44, 26 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@ArthurPSmith:

uses (P2283) It's more like preparing for groups, and the original intention of my proposal is to better distinguish projects, just as civil servants distinguish by political parties.
armament (P520)：Sports competitions are not wars so obviously inappropriate.
item operated (P121): A brief look seems to be prepared for the machine, so it seems inappropriate.

Is this intended to be used as a qualifier (relating to a particular statement on a sport or event), or as a main value property? --Yair rand (talk) 19:42, 2 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Given that a bow is a weapon, I prefer armament (P520). ChristianKl ❪✉❫ 20:07, 2 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose uses (P2283) or armament (P520) will cover it just fine. /ℇsquilo 06:36, 3 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
