- We should have the information available before creating the property, especially as the discussion about that aspect was still ongoing. It seems that even after three days, the proposer wasn't able to provide it. There are just too many case on Wikidata:Bot requests where such items are missing. Anyways, seems that next time, one needs to oppose creation until the necessary is provided. --- Jura 09:24, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

mother (P25): (delete | history | links | entity usage | logs | discussion)
Redundant with child P40 The father/mother property seems to be duplicate with the child property, especially when using qualifiers, it creates lots of redundancy —Worldm99 (talk) 01:59, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
- by this argument they are all redundant with "relative" plus qualifiers. BrokenSegue (talk) 02:31, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
- Well relative is not used for immediate family, so no. Worldm99 (talk) 07:44, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
- Keep Given that Lua can't handle inverse property relationships yet, we need some of them and this seems a clearly useful case. Once the Lua issue is fixed then I'd definitely support cleaning up as many Wikidata inverse properties as we can. ArthurPSmith (talk) 18:20, 23 December 2020 (UTC)
- Keep Being a mother is one of the semantic primitives and the ability to query it easily is useful. ChristianKl ❪✉❫ 11:14, 26 December 2020 (UTC)
- Keep Note in SPARQL it is easy to query male-line all descendents via ?item wdt:P22* wd:Q### and it is impossible with only P40.--GZWDer (talk) 17:27, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
- Star is impossible, but in a real world applications with some level of sanity you won't be able to fetch all descendants in a tree (I say this as an author of Wikidata Graph Builder: just try to load what you have suggested without limits and your browser tab will probably die or fail due to timeout). And as for limited iteration, is is still possible with
.... UNION ... UNION {wd:Q### wdt:P40 [wdt:P21 wd:Q6581097; wdt:P40 [wdt:P21 wd:Q6581097; wdt:P40 ?item] ] }

- Replace with parent (P8810) and Delete. Reason is that father/mother does not match any existing vocab -> Wikidata should not invent bicycles and use "parent" as W3C/schema.org suggest. Do not forget: just recently we had brother, sister, stepfather, stepmother and after Wikidata:Requests for comment/Make family member properties gender neutral these properties were merged. I don't see a reason why we can merge stepfather+stepmother and can not merge mother/father. --Lockal (talk) 16:23, 3 January 2021 (UTC)
- Delete and replace with parent (P8810) and eventually delete that one once inverse properties are no longer needed. Lockal’s argument sticks: Even Agrelon just has parent. Most (albeit not all) arguments in the 2016 discussion are ideological/political in nature. --Emu (talk) 18:30, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
- I could be convinced of this (especially if we had a qualifier for mother/father in the cases where it really matters). Especially with trans people it's unclear what to label a trans-male who gave birth (father v. mother is mainly useful to distinguish who gave birth but at least in English we lack the right words). BrokenSegue (talk) 19:10, 4 January 2021 (UTC)

kinship to subject (P1039)surrogate mother (Q16547118). It’s conceivable (no pun intended) to create items like person who gave birth, person whose DNA was passed on, etc. if the need should arise. --Emu (talk) 20:32, 4 January 2021 (UTC)

- Keep Per GZWDer. Extracting the full patrilineal ancestry of a person (in order) is very much a real-world application. Modifying what GZWDer gave above, this is straightforward with a line like
wd:Q### wdt:P22* ?item
-- and impossible without P22. Even for queries that don't involve paths, having P22 can be a useful help for efficiency -- a generic 'parent' property would produce a solution set twice as large, taking longer to assemble; then having to do a join with?item wdt:P21 wd:Q6581097
takes even longer. As somebody who spends a lot of time on queries that go right to the 60s limit, or have to be split into multiple separate runs, so each one can fit inside 60s, any additional inefficiency is something I really don't need. Finally 'father' and 'mother' are straightforward intuitive concepts. I don't see any benefit at all in abolishing them for something less concrete and less precise. So, a strong keep from me.

Needs to be created as a property not qualifier —Sardinhapao (talk) 17:57, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Sardinhapao: Q104664465 was created by you but it's not a property, it's an item. To request a property please see Wikidata:Property proposal. If you are proposing a property for this, you can leave this item as is and use it for the "subject item" of the property in the proposal template. The statements on this item do need to be fixed though! ArthurPSmith (talk) 19:15, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
- I did Deleted the item per author request. While it could be reused for some subject item that would involve both changing it's properties and name. In general https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Requests_for_deletions would be the place for this. As Arthur said Wikidata:Property proposal is the venue for proposing new properties.

Seems to be redundant to Property:P7900 —M2k~dewiki (talk) 10:00, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
- Delete It is redundant. For the three examples in the property proposal from P9099 the external link from P7900 doesn't work until now because the release of the monument map is not complete yet. --Looniverse (talk) 23:21, 30 January 2021 (UTC)

Does it mean they are not valid identifiers for P9099 (P9099) but valid for Monument Atlas Lower Saxony Objekt-ID (P7900)? Pamputt (talk) 06:36, 8 February 2021 (UTC)
- The ids are correct, but the database "Denkmalatlas Niedersachsen" is not completely published, so you get an error page. I hope in the near future all monuments will be published. A few days ago I wrote an email to Niedersächsisches Landesamt für Denkmalpflege (Q1988639) and they confirmed that the ids are stable and valid. --Looniverse (talk) 21:33, 8 February 2021 (UTC)

Google Play Music artist ID (former scheme) (P4198): (delete | history | links | entity usage | logs | discussion)
Google Play Music shuts down in December 2020 and replaced by YouTube Music, and this property cannot be recycled in the same manner as Property P4199, which just needs renaming and changing the formatter URL.
This is because the Google Play Music artist ID uses a certain code string, while the new YouTube Music service simply uses YouTube auto-generated artist channel (Q72108010) channels to identify the artist, and it can be added as a statement with the Property P2397. —CrystallineLeMonde (talk) 16:51, 1 September 2020 (UTC)

Specifically, did you archive them within Wikidata, or is that something you did on a personal PC, or on a public website that is not Wikidata, or..? And regardless of the answer, how does it relate to the nomination? -Pete F (talk) 23:17, 7 December 2020 (UTC)
- @Peteforsyth: I archived all the URLs on archive.org. We should not remove identifiers in general (it is still valuable information) but especially not when all the data matching to them is publicly archived. This property should be deprecated but not deleted. BrokenSegue (talk) 01:58, 8 December 2020 (UTC)
- Ah OK, that makes sense -- and now that I visit the examples on the property page, I can see there are already some example links to these archived pages, such as this one for Michael Jackson.

@Hsarrazin, Accurimbono, Candalua, Yann, NMaia: @Robin van der Vliet, PKM, Yair rand, Circeus, Amadalvarez: (who voted for this property) - I only happened to find this discussion yesterday !! --Hsarrazin (talk) 17:13, 11 November 2019 (UTC)
- @Hsarrazin: You know that I gave my support conditioned to a clear definition adjusting the boundaries to avoid overlapping with languages spoken, written or signed (P1412).

This property duplicates languages spoken, written or signed (P1412). —EncycloPetey (talk) 14:19, 21 July 2019 (UTC)
- Keep The property is well-delimited (only the language used in written work) and there's a clear rational for its inception (languages spoken, written or signed (P1412) is not appropriate for Wikisource). Alexander Doria (talk) 18:09, 21 July 2019 (UTC)
- It is not well-delimited. What limits it? If an author publishes an edition of a work by another author, with added commentary in a different language, then is the language of the original work considered or just the language of the commentary? This is a very real situation, as editors of Classical works often publish edited editions of Classical works in the original language, along with a translation and notes. So, if an author publishes an Ancient Greek edition of Menander, with an English translation, and footnotes in French, German, Greek, and English, then which language(s) has the author written in?
- this is about the language of each writer/author... the language for the editor is their own... the fact that they comment a work in another language doesn't make this other language their language... --Hsarrazin (talk) 17:02, 11 November 2019 (UTC)
- Why is "languages spoken, written, or signed" not appropriate for Wikisource? Don't speeches and orations count towards "language written"? Wikisource hosts many transcribed speeches and lectures. Wikisource also hosts audio recordings of works, which are not written. And do works recorded secondhand by another individual count as written by the original author or speaker, or is this a language written by the secondhand writer only? This matters for authors like Jesus and Socrates, who have no known works written by the authors themselves. Do we count personal correspondence to family and colleagues (which can be hosted on Wikisource), or only published works, and what if the correspondence is later published? And once we see how broad "writing language" is in this light, then how is it any different from "languages spoken, written, or signed"?
- Clearly this is a property of individual works written by the author. Each work has a language (or languages) it which it was written, and some works (such as musical works) are written in no language at all. If we are to use this property, it should be justified by a work written in that language, which shows that it is a property of the work written, and not the author who wrote it. --EncycloPetey (talk) 20:28, 21 July 2019 (UTC)

- Comment Which is the purpose of this property ? To describe the language in which a work was written, we use the language of work or name (P407). So why do we need a new property ? To get the language(s) used by a writer, just extract the language(s) of all his works. Snipre (talk) 20:59, 29 July 2019 (UTC)
- Please try the following query (language of works by Joseph Conrad):
- Try it!

- No need to duplicate the data. Snipre (talk) 21:28, 29 July 2019 (UTC)
- no, this is not to indicate in what language a work was originally written ; it is to indicate in which languages a writer wrote : if X only wrote in French, a text in English must be a translation - all works from all writers are not on wikidata, and will never be (not for decades).
- also, it helps to autocategorize, while languages spoken, written or signed (P1412) generates many wrong categories, especially for esperantists... --Hsarrazin (talk) 12:44, 9 November 2019 (UTC)
- Firstly, a lot of authors don't have their works in Wikidata. Secondly, I don't think it's possible to do a SPARQL query on Wikipedia or Wikisource. Robin van der Vliet (talk) (contribs) 19:49, 21 August 2019 (UTC)

- Keep If a person grew up in China and wrote letters in Chinese, but published works only in Spanish, how would you know that person could write in both languages without this property? Not every published work will be in Wikidata, and certainly not most private correspondence. This property adds information not available otherwise. ArthurPSmith (talk) 14:02, 30 July 2019 (UTC)
- @ArthurPSmith: You've misunderstood this property. It's not about what the author chose to publish, but for the language of their works as published by anyone. If they wrote letters in Chinese, and those letters were published (even after their death) than that qualifies under this property. It is not unusual for a person's diary or letters to be discovered and published once they have died. --EncycloPetey (talk) 15:07, 9 August 2019 (UTC)
- @EncycloPetey: I don't see how anything I expressed is a misunderstanding. Whether or not their works were published, these are languages they wrote in. I don't see how existing properties can express this. ArthurPSmith (talk) 13:40, 12 August 2019 (UTC)
- @ArthurPSmith: languages spoken, written or signed (P1412) already encodes this. --EncycloPetey (talk) 17:19, 12 August 2019 (UTC)
- @EncycloPetey: Ah, I was responding to Snipre's claim. Regarding P1412, the proposal explicitly discussed this: "We used languages spoken, written or signed (P1412) for long, but it is now flooded with all sorts of languages that people read, or speak, or even understand, which leads to nonsense info about the writing languages of an author, like saying Jules Verne (Q33977) wrote in esperanto, and a discussion on frws, aiming to remove info coming from wikidata because of this..." ArthurPSmith (talk) 17:27, 12 August 2019 (UTC)
- @ArthurPSmith: Snipre said that the property is a duplication, and it is. Wikidata does not duplicate information. Snipre also showed that the information you desire can be extracted from their works. Their works are anything they produced, whether published or not, but Wikisource is concerned only with works published in some form, so I do not understand how your response pertains to that. Why would French Wikisource need information about languages in which a person wrote, but are used in works that will not be hosted on Wikisource? Also, there is nothing on Wikidata that says Jules Verne wrote in Esperanto. Fr.WS can correct the problem by relabelling their template output to match the content coded at Wikidata. --EncycloPetey (talk) 17:35, 12 August 2019 (UTC)

- @EncycloPetey: I don't see how anything I expressed is a misunderstanding. Whether or not their works were published, these are languages they wrote in. I don't see how existing properties can express this. ArthurPSmith (talk) 13:40, 12 August 2019 (UTC)
- Keep The property is clearly delimited (only for languages used in written works) and there's a good reason for its existence (it's needed on the French Wikisource). Maybe User:Hsarrazin can explain better how this property is used on the French Wikisource and why it's needed. Robin van der Vliet (talk) (contribs) 23:48, 30 July 2019 (UTC)
- Keep, the removal is contrary to the sense in Wikidata.--Arbnos (talk) 18:36, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
- Keep per Robin van der Vliet. --Epìdosis 17:35, 9 August 2019 (UTC)
- Delete as nominator. The only rationale I've seen presented for keeping this property is that French Wikisource wants it. It is not the purpose of Wikidata to cater to desires of individual projects. --EncycloPetey (talk) 20:44, 10 August 2019 (UTC)
- first, we used languages spoken, written or signed (P1412), but this property is now flooded by all languages that a person can use, which is not equivalent to the language used to write works - this led to many wrong categories... - and written language is not equivalent to writing language (as a work language for a writer)
- on frwikisource, our author pages are managed totally frow wikidata : i.e. ALL data about an author are stored here, NOT on wikisource... if wikidata leads to wrong categories or wrong info for the specific use of wikisource (we edit texts, and are preoccupied with copyright matters), this could lead to a lot of misunderstanding, and contributors loosing trust in wd... --Hsarrazin (talk) 16:58, 11 November 2019 (UTC)
- Delete Redundant. languages spoken, written or signed (P1412) with qualifier object has role (P3831) and written language (Q1149626) does the same job.--Jklamo (talk) 07:57, 19 August 2019 (UTC)
- @Jklamo: Can also work for B'z? --Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 11:15, 6 October 2019 (UTC)
- Keep it is not a duplicate : it is the only way to know, for people who practice more than 1 language, in which language they really published... please read the creation discussion - it is really important ! --Hsarrazin (talk) 12:30, 9 November 2019 (UTC)
- Keep. This property is indeed useful to know in which language(s) an author wrote. A qualifier on languages spoken, written or signed (P1412) might to the job but a stand alone property seems nicer to me. We use this property to fill the categories by author language on the French Wikisource Author: pages. Tpt (talk) 19:01, 9 November 2019 (UTC)
- Weakly Delete. I see that it is possible to make a logical distinction between writing language (P6886) and languages spoken, written or signed (P1412), but this discussion shows disagreement about where the line is drawn. Some editors advocate keeping P6886 because we want to record the subset of languages that an author can write in, even if there is no notable published works in that written language; other editors advocate keeping P6886 to record the subset of languages that an author has published in. It seems that the first purpose is redundant over languages spoken, written or signed (P1412) with qualifier object has role (P3831); the second purpose is redundant to an auto-generated list from Wikidata items of one's published works. I think this property can add value, but we need to make a strong, clearly demarcated case for an infobox field, for this property to be useful. Deryck Chan (talk) 18:49, 11 November 2019 (UTC)
- Keep En français la propriété est très clairement limitée et précise, j'invite donc les contributeurs locuteurs d'autres langues à effectuer une vérification. Jérémy-Günther-Heinz Jähnick (talk) 09:14, 12 November 2019 (UTC)
- Keep I think this is relevant. Some time ago I stumbled over writer Olga Grjasnowa (Q106083) who does not publish in her mother tongue (yet). I wondered how to express that her mother tongue is Russian, she speaks Russian and German, but publishes in German. In my opinion the descriptions and the property proposal make it quite clear that this is intended for the languages they wrote their work in, not for any language they use(d) to write. There may be misinterpretations by people who use it (as it is the case for many properties) but in this case I don't think that it is the fault of the property itself (one could add some clarification or improve the label). As pointed out by Hsarrazin there will be always authors without a complete list of their work in Wikidata - for those it won't be possible to deduce this property from their work. I also like Hsarrazin's point that such a property would allow to find possible errors in the metadata of their work/works related to them. One could use languages spoken, written or signed (P1412) with a qualifier, but I see no advantage in this. - Valentina.Anitnelav (talk) 12:37, 12 November 2019 (UTC)
- Similar example is Nikolai Gogol (Q43718) who is known (writing language (P6886)) for his Russian works and who has never published in his (probable) mother language Ukrainian (but for sure languages spoken, written or signed (P1412)). --Infovarius (talk) 18:35, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
- Keep; semantics of this property is different from what […]languages spoken, written or signed (P1412)[…]
object has role (P3831)written language (Q1149626) represents. @Deryck Chan: I think it is unrealistic to expect complete modeling of all individual works of an author/creator, so auto-generating the list of languages is generally unfeasible. I do agree, however, that the definition of this property could be clarified regarding translations, notability, etc. Comment Do we have a property akin to “works have been translated into [language]”?―BlaueBlüte (talk) 05:17, 30 December 2019 (UTC) - Keep since languages spoken, written or signed (P1412) is different.

No edit for over a month, could we close this deletion request? I count 6 Delete and 15 Keep, there seems to be a clear consensus (as well as usefull comments that should be adressed - mainly around redundancy and defintion - but this is independant and can be dealt with later).
