French meaning[edit]

In french "collège" does only refer to middle school, not to a higher education institution. At least it is the meaning in France, and it seems to be the same in Belgium, Swiss and Canada.

So can we keep "collège" as the french label of this page? Should we add a qualifier?

@27point7 Probably faculty (Q180958) for universities? I would strongly prefer using Q180958 instead of this item for those belong to universities, as such panoramas may also happened for sinophone environments. Liuxinyu970226 (talk) 06:44, 4 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Wikidata items should be about concepts, not words. So if the word "college" means something else in French, then the French label should be changed to a more direct translation of the term as used in other languages, and the "college" label should be associated with a different item. {{u|Sdkb}}talk 07:45, 4 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
