Originally proposed at Wikidata:Property proposal/Generic
| Description | what the subject is a conceptual model for |
|---|---|
| Data type | Item |
| Domain | item (instance of conceptual model (Q2623243) or formula (Q976981)) |
| Example 1 | data model (Q1172480) → data (Q42848) |
| Example 2 | database model (Q267136) → database (Q8513) |
| Example 3 | abstract data type (Q827335) → data type (Q190087) |
| Example 4 | Navier–Stokes equations (Q201321) → fluid dynamics (Q216320) |
| See also | has role in modeling (P6530), computes solution to (P2159), approximation algorithm (P1171) |
Motivation edit
There are many conceptual models and formulas that are a model for some thing.
It would be nice to be able to express these relations with a simple property instead of
having to use awkward statements such as abstract data type (Q827335)subclass of (P279)mathematical model (Q486902)
There is also has role in modeling (P6530) but that does not express the same relation "has role in modeling X" does not mean that it's a model for X ... but rather that it is a part of a model for X.
Note that a similar property has been previously suggested but was abandoned due to lack of support and was also needlessly restrictive in regards to the domain and the allowed values (e.g. it could not be used for my third example).

Support. Another example is hybrid system (Q2665508)model forcyber-physical system (Q1120057). — The Erinaceous One 🦔 00:42, 27 October 2022 (UTC)

Withdrawn I withdraw my proposal in favor of using statements like Xhas use (P366)scientific modeling (Q1116876)of (P642)Y. --Push-f (talk) 13:19, 5 November 2022 (UTC) - @Push-f Can’t do that, of (P642)

- @Push-f Can’t do that, of (P642)
- Support also an inverse property "modeled by"; without that pair, other properties are being mis-used, such as "represents"/"represented by" or "depicts"/"depicted in". P6530 ("has role in modeling") is tangentially related to the present proposal. Fgnievinski (talk) 02:48, 12 November 2023 (UTC)
- Support Another example . Wanted to propose that too, thanks @push-f:. author TomT0m / talk page 11:00, 25 November 2023 (UTC)
- The author of this proposal has expressed to withdraw it and it is not clear why it was suddenly reopened here, so I am closing this proposal again as Withdrawn. I, as the property creator, affirm this decision and it stands. If anyone wants to reopen the discussion, please feel free to do so, but this time in a new proposal with a link to this discussion.
