| See also | image (P18), logo image (P154) |
- Motivation
The property image (P18) is used extremely arbitrary at companies. Sometimes a product is shown, sometimes it's duplicate to logo image (P154). The primary visual identification mark for companies is the logo and not the HQ, which is currently shown by the visual editor or the Wikipedia mobile app, when it occupies P18. This should be solved by this proposal.
Generally is the question whether entities should have set an image. The reuse of P18 is most easy if all P18 statemtn only show that object. Related images pollute the property somehow.--Kopiersperre (talk) 15:47, 6 October 2016 (UTC)
- Discussion
- I would prefer if the property doesn't abbreviate HQ. ChristianKl (talk) 18:03, 6 October 2016 (UTC)
- Why not use P18, with a applies to part (P518) qualifier? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 18:28, 6 October 2016 (UTC)
Oppose. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 09:22, 12 October 2016 (UTC)
- I'd prefer an item for the headquarter, and property headquarter. TThere also should exist a property for the logo. If there is not, it shoudl be created. author TomT0m / talk page 18:39, 6 October 2016 (UTC) Also, this is not a generic property but more like an organisation related one. author TomT0m / talk page 18:44, 6 October 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose. Use a qualifier. Thierry Caro (talk) 00:38, 7 October 2016 (UTC)
- Oppose use a qualifier and/or a specific item. Thryduulf (talk) 18:23, 30 October 2016 (UTC)
