quotes work edit

Originally proposed at Wikidata:Property proposal/Creative work

Done: quotes work (P6166) (Talk and documentation)

Description	other creative work which this work quotes from textually, verbally or lyrically
Represents	quotation (Q206287)
Data type	Item
Domain	creative work (Q17537576)
Allowed values	creative work (Q17537576)
Example 1	Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Q46758) → 1 Corinthians 15 (Q4595937) ("The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death." Technically, the value should be an edition, but it's probably sufficient.)
Example 2	Popular Song (Q57899540) → Popular (Q3908430) (chorus of the former)
See also	samples from work (P5707)

Motivation edit

Some works quote words from others. This is distinct to samples from work (P5707) (which is the same but for audio) and to other properties for derivative works (which generally imply that a lot of the original work is present). Jc86035 (talk) 11:35, 12 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion edit

Comment Not so much a comment as a question: Could this maybe be made more general by renaming it as "contains reference to"? Then it wouldn't be limited to other creative works, but would include things like events, places, concepts, etc. as well. Just a thought. Moebeus (talk) 12:54, 12 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Moebeus: The property I'm proposing would be for direct quotations, so maybe different properties for "mentions" or "mentioned by" would be appropriate (a work might be too long for "mentions", and a concept might be too commonly mentioned to use "mentioned by").

Support though I think the label could be shortened to "quoted work" or something like that. Note we do already have cites work (P2860). ArthurPSmith (talk) 19:54, 12 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
