Motivation
[edit]
Notified participants of WikiProject Authority control: I propose to create a new property for the geodata host website Mapcarta (Q113124866).
Mapcarta entries can be linked to items for geographical points of interest (URL format: https://mapcarta.com/). --Soufiyouns (talk) 07:43, 21 August 2024 (UTC)
Discussion
[edit]
Support Mapcarta doesn't have own data, it uses other databases like OSM, Wikidata and Wikimedia Commons. --Kdkeller (talk) 22:16, 30 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Kdkeller: Thank you very much for this important remark. It should be noted that this interconnection between search sites is not a defect, but rather an informational richness and interactivity. Wikidata currently has several properties that are not based solely on own data, and here are some of them: GNS Unique Feature ID (P2326), BabelNet ID (P2581), Golden ID (P7502), etc. Regards.

- Thanks for your information. This convinced me. --Kdkeller (talk) 21:41, 31 August 2024 (UTC)
- @Kdkeller: This shows the merits of discussion and exchange of opinions in order to improve this fantastic Wikidata project. Regards. Soufiyouns (talk) 07:03, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
