Motivation[edit]

Existing properties seems to be awkward in this use case (student organization are mostly independent and not part of a school in strict sense). GZWDer (talk) 16:26, 10 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion[edit]

  1. How a person "belongs to" (or works at) an organization - This is the original scope of the property
  2. A (independent) club or society that contains member of another organization - if limited to schools, this is the proposal. There're also other clubs dedicating to employees of companies or other organization, but most of them are not notable.
  3. affiliated school (Q2983860), e.g. Barnard College (Q167733) -> Columbia University (Q49088) where Barnard College is neither part of nor member of nor owned by Columbia University. (in contrast, Barnard College is a member of (P463) Annapolis Group (Q4767967).) Currently we don't have a property for such relationship.
  4. A sports team affiliated to another - this is parent club (P831).
  5. Sometimes a organization that is part of (part of (P361)) another or owned by (owned by (P127)) another may also be called "affiliated to" another, which is a misnomer. Previously we have a property for this (since deleted).

I propose that we should limit the property for the first use case, and use different property for other use cases.--GZWDer (talk) 19:25, 13 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
