Motivation

edit

This property will replace the usage of Wikidata item of this property (P1629) to relate an external identifier property with the entity its value identifies. Wikidata item of this property (P1629) is currently conflated and used for multiple relationships including this one.

We could use identifies (P10476) to relate an entity with its identifier item and class of non-item property value (P10726) to relate the property with the identifier, however I don't believe identifiers are notable enough for items. Lectrician1 (talk) 23:30, 9 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Never got this ping, but if we really can't use identifies (P10476) on properties then   Support. -wd-Ryan (Talk/Edits) 04:33, 10 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
