Needed to link Commons files to data that was used to generate them, if we hold it.

Also, in georeferencing, needed to identify which gcps file was used to generate a mask file. Jheald (talk) 09:21, 17 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Template:WS Looks important too. --Juandev (talk) 20:17, 29 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - Commons also has .map files in the Data: namespace, and i could imagine they might get more types in the future. Wouldn't it be better to rename this to 'based on Commons data file' and allow any file available in the Data: namespace? Husky (talk) 11:25, 15 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I'd see this more as a general 'derivative work'/'based on' relation, but there is probably a datatypes problem here? And the map point by husky also seems a good point. TheDJ (talk) 12:27, 6 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Support Makes sense. See also the addition of subtypes like tabular case data. Sj (talk) 15:42, 18 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Support Parallel properties for other data types would make sense too. – Minh Nguyễn ^💬 16:03, 18 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
