Alexa rank of non-websites?![edit]

Hey Alexabot and @Tozibb, I am a bit surprised to see Alexa rank (P1661) being added to non-website items, and strongly tend to remove the added claims again. Organizations do not have an Alexa rank, but maybe their websites have such values. Unfortunately, websites typically do not have an item, so this is difficult to model.

Another concern is the amount of data which is accumulated with time. If there are regular updates, there may be lots of Alexa rank claims in items soon. Did you ever think about tabular data at Commons, which seems more suitable for such bulky data? Cheers, —MisterSynergy (talk) 20:18, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Only items with instance of (P31) -> website (Q35127) should have Alexa rank (P1661) somewhere, items, that just have a website (Q35127) as a property should not have an Alexa rank. Could you please modify your bot to observe this restriction? Grüße vom Sänger ♫ (talk) 10:44, 14 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
