Motivation edit
spoken text audio (P989) currently includes files with the spoken text of a Wikipedia article associated with the item. It's generally not the most recent one, but one specified by a revision-id of the wiki. As this number is meaningless without the wiki, the above proposal includes the full url.
Wikimedia import URL (P4656) can have similar values, but, as reference URL (P854), it doesn't seem suitable as it's used in another context. Please help complete the proposal/add more samples. (Add your motivation for this property here.) --- Jura 07:52, 12 October 2019 (UTC)
Discussion edit
Comment. Maybe full work available at URL (P953) could do? But whatever I support the proposal. Thierry Caro (talk) 17:54, 13 October 2019 (UTC)- Comment For giving a URL for a reference to Wikipedia, always use Wikimedia import URL (P4656) with the appropriate "permanent link" url (which can be simplified to just the kind of url above). It's not clear what other use-case (if any) the present proposal is considering. Jheald (talk) 22:27, 13 October 2019 (UTC)
- There is a risk that it gets confused with these. It's the revision-id of the Wikipedia article that is spoken. I added the corresponding template fields. --- Jura 07:20, 14 October 2019 (UTC)
- I think using the term "ID" in the label is confusing - it's a URL, not the numeric value like '22382928'. Nevertheless I think this is a good idea in general, to have a property specifically tailored to point to specific revisions of a wikimedia page (and it could be used for many purposes besides just the audio recording one proposed). So
Support. However, Jura you really shouldn't mark your own proposals "ready" particularly when they have not attracted any positive support at that point. ArthurPSmith (talk) 17:50, 21 October 2019 (UTC) - I updated the label as enwiki uses "Page Version ID:" for the "oldid" [1]. --- Jura 10:47, 23 October 2019 (UTC)
