Hey KRLS, in 2016 you have created a lot of new items about artworks in the Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya (Q861252), such as Q27506193, with User:KRLS Bot. These items use a lot of references of the style imported from Wikimedia project (P143): Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya (Q861252), which is formally not correct for two reasons:

• The property imported from Wikimedia project (P143) should only be used with Wikimedia projects (such as Catalan Wikipedia (Q199693)), not with external sources; there is a bot run fixing around 5 million wrong uses these days by using stated in (P248) instead; that is also the reason why this problem came to my attention
• Both imported from Wikimedia project (P143) and stated in (P248) require values of the type work (Q386724), not organization (Q43229); the museum item itself is thus not a good choice for the value

Now my question is which work exactly you have used back then to import the artworks. Probably some catalog, or (online) database maintained by the museum? If there is no item yet for this work, we should create one and use it instead of the museum item.

Just to be clear: I do not expect you to make any fixes by yourself. I have all bot code and permissions readily available to make this fix by myself (move reference qualifier from imported from Wikimedia project (P143) to stated in (P248) and replace the value as well), I just need to know which item to use instead of Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya (Q861252). Can you help me there? Thanks a lot!

Hi MisterSynergy. First of all, my apologies for the slow reply. My uploads were part of the Wikidata:WikiProject Modernisme (an GRACMON and Amical Wikimedia project). I used this erroneous property (imported from Wikimedia project (P143)) in early batches; I fixed some of them but not all. We imported art nouveau catalogued items from main museums of Catalonia (each item have its inventory number (P217)). This project aims to compile all modernism artwork in Catalonia, because they are widespreaded in several museums, mainly these items are not online. We can create "Museum Nacional d'Art de Catalunya Database" item as stated in and we can add url when it is avaiable.

Hey KRLS, thanks for your reply. I have created Museum Nacional d'Art de Catalunya Database (Q64226394), can you please try to add some more information about it? I'd then set up a batch to move all imported from Wikimedia project (P143): Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya (Q861252) reference claims to stated in (P248): Museum Nacional d'Art de Catalunya Database (Q64226394). This affects 160.261 statements in 13.092 items.

Hey KRLS, I have now changed all references as announced in my first comment in this topic. The database item could still need some improvements, but the situation is already much better than before. Cheers, and thanks for your input again!
