Wikidata:Property proposal/Gitee username

Description	username on a website publishing user generated content
Represents	Gitee (Q97173031) username (Q15901043)
Data type	External identifier
Domain	human (Q5), organization (Q43229), project (Q170584), software (Q7397), technical standard (Q317623), event (Q1656682), programming language (Q9143)
Allowed values	string pattern (regex if possible)

Planned use	import 50 identifiers as a pilot for Wikidata:WikiProject Informatics
Number of IDs in source	unsure, maybe 5 million as claimed by https://techcrunch.com/2020/08/21/china-is-building-its-github-alternative-gitee/ . Just guessing, maybe 1% of those merit import in Wikidata due to our already having related content about person, organization, software project, etc.
Expected completeness	always incomplete; I cannot foresee Wikidata ever wanting more than 10% of these identifiers
Formatter URL	https://gitee.com/$1
See also	GitHub username (P2037)

This identifier is useful for Wikidata:WikiProject Informatics and meta:WikiCite. It connects software developers, whether they are people, organizations, or groups, to the Gitee user account. One application of this is connecting mentions of software in academic papers to software developers who should get credit. Bluerasberry (talk) 17:30, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support With millions of users, this clearly merits a dedicated property, and it would probably be useful to have a companion property for the repositories too. --Daniel Mietchen (talk) 00:02, 30 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
