Done: image set (P10696) (Talk and documentation)

Description	images of a set; qualify with "determination method" (P459) to define the item for the set and "object has role" (P3831) with the part this depicts
Data type	Commons media file
Domain	any
Allowed values	group of images matching the set mandatory qualifiers determination method (P459), object has role (P3831) values of determination method (P459) should be instances of "Wikimedia image set". Sample: plant overview (Q96323759) values of object has role (P3831) must be values of has part(s) of the class (P2670) on the item used on the value for determination method (P459). Sample: view of single flower (Q96707232) (used at Q96323759#P2670)
Example 1	Rosa 'Coral Dawn' (Q18396125) → File:Rapperswil - Duftrosengarten - Coral Dawn KL Doerner 1952 IMG 2393.JPG qualifiers:determination method (P459)=plant overview (Q96323759); object has role (P3831)=view of single flower (Q96707232)
Example 2	Rosa 'Coral Dawn' (Q18396125) → File:Rapperswil - Duftrosengarten - Coral Dawn KL Doerner 1952 2010-06-14 18-43-54.JPG qualifiers:determination method (P459)=plant overview (Q96323759); object has role (P3831)=view of bud (Q96707237)
Example 3	Rosa 'Coral Dawn' (Q18396125) → File:Ringve botaniske hage foto-Åge Hojem, NTNU Vitenskapsmuseet dsc9309 (15284015541).jpg qualifiers:determination method (P459)=plant overview (Q96323759); object has role (P3831)=view of entire plant (Q96707241)
Example 10	As above but in gallery format view of single flower (Q96707232) view of bud (Q96707237) view of entire plant (Q96707241)
Planned use	add to items about rose cultivars
See also	image (P18)

Motivation edit

The above proposal following a short exchange with @Pitke: at Wikidata_talk:WikiProject_Botany#Canonical_views? about the way to include those into Wikidata. An alternative could be to include those into image (P18) and qualify there, but this has several disadvantages:

One of those images isn't necessarily a representative one useful for general illustration at Wikipedia or elsewhere
It's not clearly why one or the other image was included. Here the set allows to define what the views should represent. Viewed together the might a useful way to identify key features of each cultivar and compare it with others.

Eventually, this might be possible directly on Commons, but it's not clear when and there is no guarantee that this will happen anytime soon. If one day it's possible, we could reconsider the question (Add your motivation for this property here.) --- Jura 12:06, 28 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
