Use for artists
[edit]WikiProject sum of all paintings has more than 50 participants and couldn't be pinged. Please post on the WikiProject's talk page instead.
Could this property be also used to indicate which exhibitions an artist participated in? Finoskov would be interested in that use. − Pintoch (talk) 08:48, 12 June 2019 (UTC)
- An example of the proposed use is at Q3557418#P608. − Pintoch (talk) 12:23, 12 June 2019 (UTC)
- Support that usage - Salgo60 (talk) 23:03, 18 January 2020 (UTC)

Values should be exhibitions, not institutions!?
[edit]@Joshbaumgartner: I'm against property constraint (P2302)value-type constraint (Q21510865)
- @Marsupium: I totally agree (both on ontological and pragmatical ground). Also, I'm a bit dubious of the use on Vultee BT-13 Valiant (Q28055), I guess this property should be use on individual item rather than on a family aircraft, WDYT? Cheers, VIGNERON en résidence (talk) 08:40, 14 January 2022 (UTC)
- @VIGNERON en résidence: Oh, Vultee BT-13 Valiant (Q28055) doesn't look well-modeled. Has to be resolved with items for the exemplars that get location (P276)/collection (P195) then. As long as nobody feels like creating the needed items, I'd rather prefer the respective statements to be deleted. (Anyway, they are not referenced.) Best, --Marsupium (talk) 08:56, 14 January 2022 (UTC)
- @Jarekt: Could you state your view here considering last changes and related c:Template talk:Artwork#Exhibition history. Thanks a lot! Best, --Marsupium (talk) 17:33, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
- Marsupium, When this property was proposed the proposal was only for institutions, and for a long time it was the main use I observed. Other use I noticed was cities: I do not like it much but for some items all a source might give you is that it was displayed in at some location at some point in time. Those cases are not great but probably should not be flagged as an issue, just like providing century someone was born in is better than nothing when year of birth is not known. I also enthusiastically support extending the coverage to exhibitions, but the original use should not be excluded. --Jarekt (talk) 04:10, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
- Jarekt, from the proposal I cannot read out that it was intended for institutions. The example given has Saint Anne, Leonardo da Vinci’s ultimate masterpiece (Q18560520) as value, an exhibition. The last comment in the proposal explicitly contains "it is distinct from location". But even regardless of the (usage) history of this property the main question to me remains: How is the relation of this property to location (P276)? In my eyes locations (cities if no more precise information is available) clearly belong to location (P276), no? Should we maintain all that data twice in location (P276) and exhibition history (P608)? Best, --Marsupium (talk) 08:13, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
- PS: To add some numbers: At Wikidata:Database reports/Constraint violations/P608#Types statistics the first non-exhibition class is art museum (Q207694) with 529 use cases, the more popular classes are 27236 added together. Seems like non-exhibitions might be 1-2% of current use cases. --Marsupium (talk) 08:28, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
- Marsupium, I never studied this property very closely but property proposal states "Domain: museum objects", and when you click Items with the most statements of this property link on the top of the page most of the returned items (which I used for testing) were for non-exhibition items (mostly GLAM institutions, but also peoples names, hotel names, building addresses, cities, etc.). I do prefer exhibition items, but do not see anything wrong with other items as long as they are supported by references. I do not have strong feelings about value-type constraint (Q21510865) class set to territory (Q1496967), and if you think that is incorrect use, I am fine with removing it. --Jarekt (talk) 03:53, 21 January 2022 (UTC)

Qualifiers
[edit]Notified participants of WikiProject Visual arts books and other sources often provide a catalogue number and a title in addition to the exhibition name. For example: Paris, Galeries Durand-Ruel, Exposition de Tableaux, Pastels et Gravures de Mary Cassatt, Nov.-Dec. 1893, cat. 1, as La Toilette de l'Enfant. here
Should we use qualifiers for that ? Or these data go directly to the catalogue and title properties ? On commons c:template:Exhibition support these data, but c:cTemplate:Artwork does not retrieve them from Wikidata. -Zolo (talk) 09:43, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
- Good question! Whether or not we use them it would be good to come up with data modelling recommendations for this. It’s very relevant for provenance modelling in general, not just for art. Consider the case of local gardening contests. Jane023 (talk)<
I usually use the catalogue code properly with the catalogue as a qualifier. Example at Richard Hilliard (Q107252416)? PKM (talk) 00:28, 17 February 2022 (UTC)
property constraint
[edit]Currently exhibition (Q464980) and arts festival edition (Q124312595) are the only allowed values. I would add film festival edition (Q27787439) as well, as it's pretty much the same as arts festival edition (Q124312595) --D-Kuru (talk) 21:11, 25 September 2024 (UTC)
- As there were no comments, reservations or constraints against this, I added film festival edition (Q27787439) --D-Kuru (talk) 11:38, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- Hi D-Kuru, I found your comment only now while looking for a property that may be used to link films to film festival editions. There also exists presented in (P5072) which may be used to indicate film festivals at which a film was presented (have a look at the example). What do you think about their relationship? - Valentina.Anitnelav (talk) 13:37, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- I use this property, because I asked on the Project chat and got this property as answer. To be honest, I don't mind either of them, because they seem to achieve pretty much the same thing. Even though I think that the best way would be to tag all films in the item of the film festival. --D-Kuru (talk) 17:44, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
- I agree with your last sentence (especially film items can get very large, even without a long list of festivals they were screened at). I could not find a good property for the inverse relation (there is setlist (P9793) for music). Additionally I found a third way to express the relation between films and film festival editions (that is actually very much in use): participant in (P1344) with 869 uses (presented in (P5072) has 728 uses, exhibition history (P608) 96 uses). I will put this up for discussion at Wikidata:WikiProject_Movies. - Valentina.Anitnelav (talk) 20:55, 5 November 2024 (UTC)
