Wikidata:Property proposal/student count by gender

‎student count by gender

edit

Originally proposed at Wikidata:Property proposal/Generic

   Not done
DescriptionI think there should be a way to document the number of students at a university by their gender, as data for student counts (at least if they come from GENESIS Online - german universities) contain that data divided in male and female students. I think it would make more sense to implement that as a qualifier for count of students (P2196) than implementing it as a new property as that wouldn't make old data obsolete, but also it could interfere with tools that retrieve that data automated and are then confused by having multiple counts at the same time.
Data typeItem
Template parameterthe gender of students counted
Domaineducational organization (Q5341295)
Allowed valuesThe allowed values of sex or gender (P21) are probably suitable for this
Example 1if implemented as it's own property Template:Student count by gender
Example 2if implemented as qualifier for thecount of students (P2196) property Template:Student count
Example 3for example in the year 1998, female according to GENESIS Online Template:Student count by gender
Planned useAdd statistical data from student counts from GENESIS-Online to universities Wikidata sites
Robot and gadget jobsIf it's implemented as a constraint for student count (Property:P2196) a bot might go through the datasets and add a value for the not categorized data to indicate that it is the count of all students regardless of genders.
See alsocount of students (P2196)

Motivation

edit

I have noticed that there is no real possibility to enter that data into Wikidata without violating some constraints (which ofc you shouldn't do). So I am propossing this qualifier/property so one is able to officially enter that data into Wikidata, as I think it would be useful for statistical analysis purposes and stuff.

  Oppose. You can use qualifiers: P518 or maybe P1539/P1540 (cf. P1128). Ayack (talk) 15:48, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
