Motivation

edit

Since this code is used for identify all legal persons and registered orgnaizations in Mainland China, I think that adding this property would help. 笔尖留痕 (talk) 16:09, 7 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  Done @笔尖留痕, Kolja21, Viztor, Cwek, Dhx1, YFdyh000: --99of9 (talk) 23:47, 30 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • I removed "property that may violate privacy" and "Wikidata property for authority control for people". I admit this might be a confusing name, but as of today, it is only for organizations and not people.
    • @99of9: Please don't revert the deletion of "property that may violate privacy", this is simply not applicable because the code is not for people, but for orgs only, which by definition has nothing to do with privacy. Viztor (talk) 23:57, 30 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      • I reverted because it was explicitly supported by @ChristianKl: above, so you should discuss this before removing it. As to your point, the description is "for all legal persons and other organizations in China", which clearly includes people. But I do agree it's best not to use on people without at least reading those warnings - that's why the warning is helpful. --99of9 (talk) 00:00, 31 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
        • Legal person(法人) as defined by Chinese law is in contrast with natural person(自然人), which is what we usually mean by people and where privacy would apply. This ID is exclusively for organizations. The one for natural person already exist as Citizen Identification Number. Again, I can understand the confusion caused by translation, but it is what it is. Viztor (talk) 00:10, 31 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
        • @99of9: BTW, This is probably caused by a bad translation, the proper translation for 法人 should be juridical person instead of legal person. Viztor (talk) 00:15, 31 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • BTW, @笔尖留痕: you seems to have incorrectly label the examples, where did you get the information from? I checked the official registry at China Organization Data Service, and the listed id for Supreme People's Court is incorrect. I will do some other checks later, but where did you get that information for the examples? Viztor (talk) 19:07, 31 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
