Extension request

Can this property be used for other domains?--Micru (talk) 09:23, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

Example?

I think we have enough properties to cover real dependencies now. d1g (talk) 21:44, 9 September 2017 (UTC)

Optional dependencies?

How can optional dependencies be specified? --Hhm8 (talk) 19:40, 27 November 2018 (UTC)

Good question. I would use has characteristic (P1552) → optional (Q59864995) — Dexxor (talk) 19:33, 22 May 2020 (UTC)

video game expansion packs / DLCs

It’s been floated to use this property to model the relationship between video game expansion pack (Q209163) (and downloadable content (Q1066707)) and video game (Q7889) − for example, BioShock 2: Minerva's Den (Q24806656)depends on software (P1547)BioShock 2 (Q302839) and StarCraft: Brood War (Q840409)depends on software (P1547)StarCraft (Q165929). Does this make sense? There is some usage of it already Jean-Fred (talk) 13:00, 4 September 2020 (UTC)

SELECT ?item ?itemLabel ?game ?gameLabel WHERE {
  SERVICE wikibase:label { bd:serviceParam wikibase:language "[AUTO_LANGUAGE],en". }
  ?item wdt:P1547 ?game.
  ?game wdt:P31/wdt:P279* wd:Q7889.
}

Try it!

It is definitely not wrong but wouldn’t it be nice to create a new property expansion of that can be used for both video games and board games? —Dexxor (talk) 14:44, 4 September 2020 (UTC)

Also a possibility :) I’ll make a proposal and mention this property. Jean-Fred (talk) 16:03, 4 September 2020 (UTC)

Huh, turns out Wikidata:Property proposal/expansion has been open for a while ; had completely forgotten about it. Jean-Fred (talk) 16:32, 4 September 2020 (UTC)

I started Wikidata:Property proposal/expansion of. Jean-Fred (talk) 09:48, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
