Motivation edit

This would be useful for lighthouses, and possible some other equipment. It's about the only property that we are missing from the infobox template at enwiki. Alternatively item operated (P121) could be used with some qualifier, but I'm not sure how well that fits. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 12:01, 14 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
