Discussion

•  Comment It would be good to have a label that makes it clear in which direction the property is to be used, e.g. "member" could be "(is a )member of" or "has( as) member". --- Jura 12:17, 6 March 2022 (UTC)

  Yes, I changed it to "observer of". Midleading (talk) 14:19, 6 March 2022 (UTC)

  @Midleading maybe even more clear to name it: Official observer status in organisation ? That way it would be distinct from organizations that are non-official and focus on critical observation like Human Rights Watch --Zblace (talk) 08:36, 6 April 2022 (UTC)

  Thanks for your suggestion! Midleading (talk) 13:09, 8 April 2022 (UTC)

•  Comment I'm an observer in astronomy (i.e., I use telescopes to observe the sky), but that's different from what you intend here. I think you should clarify the label to avoid confusion. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 14:35, 7 March 2022 (UTC)

  I appended "organisation" to the label to make the scope clearer. --Midleading (talk) 03:53, 12 March 2022 (UTC)
