- Motivation
We should start to document better how living creatures eat, mate, move or come to life. This property would help. Thierry Caro (talk) 02:36, 10 April 2016 (UTC)

Comment Thierry Caro I assume (as in your example) we would generally expect multiple values for this property for a given taxon? ArthurPSmith (talk) 18:44, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
Support. This seems like a useful piece of information to record about animals. Thryduulf (talk: local | en.wp | en.wikt) 00:11, 12 April 2016 (UTC)- Thierry Caro, the given allowed values restricting the property to horse gait (Q754659), but your examples contradict this. Could you clarify this please. --Succu (talk) 21:37, 13 April 2016 (UTC)
- horse gait (Q754659) is not mentioned anywhere. Just use the new property everywhere it is relevant with any animal that may fit. Thierry Caro (talk) 21:53, 13 April 2016 (UTC)
- Of course you can use this for horses but it will not be limited to them. Thierry Caro (talk) 21:58, 13 April 2016 (UTC)

Comment I think the domain is unclear. I see a subfamily Ursinae (Q7901176) and a trivial name kangaroo (Q5070208) as examples. I am not convinced that those are the most appropriate places to put this property? Wouldn't species be the correct place? Or do we cover the complete taxonomic tree of animals, plus trivial names? If Ursinae (Q7901176) are supposed to move by Rack (Q1118545), does that mean that all included taxa do, or at least one? Are non-taxa allowed values (robots?) - if so, which ones? I am not yet convinced of this. Lymantria (talk) 15:56, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
@Thierry Caro, Thryduulf, Pigsonthewing, Lymantria: 
Done as there is certainly consensus to create this property. That said, Lymantria has concerns that should certainly be discussed on the property's discussion page. For now, I constrained the domain to animals. --Srittau (talk) 19:15, 16 May 2016 (UTC)
