Discussion

(Note: property was originally proposed as "Archives and Manuscripts Catalogue name ID")

•  Support as proposer - PKM (talk) 20:44, 13 April 2021 (UTC)
•  Strong support Looks very useful indeed. Entries seem well-sourced, and frequently highly detailed and expansive, including cross-linking information. Would be a very valuable addition. Note that despite the range of ID forms, a search for '*' seems to return everything, so information should be readily retrievable. My only quibble would be the property name, which IMO needs to be both snappier and more specific. Perhaps "CofE archives name ID". But the exact label is something that can be evolved. For the present let's get this created and into MnM a.s.a.p. Jheald (talk) 22:08, 13 April 2021 (UTC)
  •  Comment I would be totally happy with "CofE archives name ID" for the property name. - PKM (talk) 22:46, 13 April 2021 (UTC)
