Motivation
[edit]This is a well-known thesaurus used in many libraries' cataloging for educational materials, as well as in authority records for agents to describe attributes of the agents that are in the educational realm. I will add links to the thesaurus when editing or creating new items in Wikidata. UWashPrincipalCataloger (talk) 23:22, 7 August 2020 (UTC)
Discussion
[edit]- Support do you plan to set up a MixNMatch task? or just add them as you go? --Hannes Röst (talk) 14:00, 10 August 2020 (UTC)
- I was just planning to add as I go. I have never set up a MixNMatch task, and don't know how to do that at this time. --Adam Schiff (talk)
- Support Very strong support. This could support a number of education projects by matching to other education thesauri currently being added or prepared. I'm sure someone can help with setting up a MixNMatch Pru.mitchell (talk) 01:53, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
