This page is for the proposal of new properties.

Before proposing a property

  1. Search if the property already exists.
  2. Search if the property has already been proposed.
  3. Check if you can give a similar label and definition as an existing Wikipedia infobox parameter, or if it can be matched to an infobox, to or from which data can be transferred automatically.
  4. Select the right datatype for the property.
  5. Read Wikidata:Creating a property proposal for guidelines you should follow when proposing new property.
  6. Start writing the documentation based on the preload form below by editing the two templates at the top of the page to add proposal details.

Creating the property

  1. Once consensus is reached, change status=ready on the template, to attract the attention of a property creator.
  2. Creation can be done 1 week after the creation of the proposal, by a property creator or an administrator.
  3. See property creation policy.

Hello, I am adding some 2022 census data to Bangladeshi upazila. To count total population, government did something like this: male + female + hijra = total population for that upazila.

(See for example Pirganj Upazila (Q13419437))

To add Hijra or non-binary population, I need this property. আফতাবুজ্জামান (talk) 19:41, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Before anyone suggests it, romantic orientation is a concept completely different from either sex or gender (P21) or sexual orientation (P91) so these properties cannot be used instead. --Trade (talk) 23:33, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wikidata is not supposed to be anglocentric. Properties should not focus on the meaning of English words, but you should seek to define them well, so that they can be used by speakers of other languages as well.
Additionally, this seems to me like private information (property that may violate privacy (Q44601380)), so the idea of sourcing it from Wikipedia seems questionable. ChristianKl11:24, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't see how this could violate privacy more than sexual orientation (P91). -wd-Ryan (Talk/Edits) 15:09, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Didn't stop people opposing sexual orientation (P91) back then.--Trade (talk) 08:34, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Wd-Ryan If someone proposes a property, take the time to actually read the proposal in detail before you support it. Nobody proposed to just use Wikipedia lists/categories as source for sexual orientation (P91). sexual orientation (P91) is appropriately labeled with property that may violate privacy (Q44601380) indicating that it "should generally not be supplied unless they can be considered widespread public knowledge or openly supplied by the individual themselves". ChristianKl19:45, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The field simply states a source for people to find items to use the property on. Whether or not people chooses to use the articles as a source in of itself is something i (for obvious reasons) have no control over
Besides, why would i tell people to list the Wikipedia articles as source when none of the examples does so? Doesn't make sense Trade (talk) 11:48, 9 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I do think that the general people we use the word source is to suggest places where you can use as a source for the statements. If your position is that items could be found there but they are not sourced you could say so explicitely in the property template form.
I do believe, that it's worth making an effort to prevent privacy violations. If you take sexual orientation (P91) as an example, you could look at it and would see what we did to prevent it to be used in privacy violating ways. You skipped that step.
Additionally, the point about defining the property in a way that's not relies on the particular meaning of an English term is still open. ChristianKl09:47, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I agree this property should have pretty much the same standards as sexual orientation (P91). The definition of this property can rely on the class of romantic orientation (Q4688879), of which there are dozens of instances. -wd-Ryan (Talk/Edits) 16:03, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I have no way to add constraints to a property that have yet to be created. Unless you know something i don't Trade (talk) 00:05, 16 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • This is a weird one. This is a digital version of a 2015 book "Ar Aizputi un novadu saistītie". Website was made with the same data, I presume. The data appears to be compiled and curated by a single person. Her credentials appear in order, so I have no reason to doubt the accuracy. The site does have unique info not found elsewhere as she interviewed people firsthand and cites sources otherwise. It does lean heavily on "personal angle" rather than any sort of structured data. My concern is that the author is 98 now. Last update seems to be 2019 and 2016 before that a bunch after initial release. "Autortiesības" ("copyright") is just a text on the website. There is no contact info. There is no info about the plan here for this website and maintaining it. What happens if, for example, I spot an error - how will this get updated? I don't like that they haven't even set up HTTPS, this screams made by the "nephew who is good with computers". That said, the aizpute.lv domain belong to the local Municipality, so they could presumably retain this indefinitely. But I very much doubt they will ever update this unless all the IP rights are settled and some sort of initiative for this happens (or some volunteer takes over). I don't know if any of this is relevant to having a property, but it is likely the data will just remain as it is now until the website goes 404. I guess I don't oppose this particular "database", but I do think it would have been better served as a source for other long-term maintained databases. —  HELLKNOWZ  TALK  enWiki 09:52, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
