- @Máté:, are these values correct? --Trade (talk) 09:13, 25 September 2020 (UTC)
- The website only seems to cover NTSC-U, NTSC-J, and PAL. This in a roundabout way makes your list both incomplete and superfluous :). There are three main standards PAL, NTSC, and SECAM, and they are not subsets of one another (i.e. the subject item is not right). They all have, however, numerous variants. However, the website uses it to identify region. This might mean that instead of a new property you may use something like valid in place (P3005) with items for the regions where these standards are used. Máté (talk) 17:38, 25 September 2020 (UTC)
- How would you make the list less incomplete?--Trade (talk) 18:12, 25 September 2020 (UTC)
- This popped back in my head as I was reading the latest Video Game Metadata Schema 4.1 (Q100158934) (which has a “region code” entry). I think (but I might be wrong!) that what we mostly care about is in the context of publication − “This game was released in PAL territories in 1999” − so Máté’s proposal to use valid in place (P3005) (or maybe place of publication (P291) ?) with Qitems such as PAL region (Q2729044) might make more sense?

- It's unclear to me what an analog television standard happens to be and the description doesn't tell me. ChristianKl ❪✉❫ 00:01, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
