Adult (Q80994) and Adulthood (Q378915)

[edit]

There doesn't seem to be any difference between this item and item Q378915 (adulthood).

In no wikipedia there are separate articles for Adult and for Adulthood. Looking at the wikipedia articles linked from these 2 items (currently), one can see that there are only 3 wikipedias that have an article in both items. BUT, upon entering the articles, you find out that: in the Norwegian Nyrosk (nn) and swedish (sv) wikipedias, there is one article about adult in Human Society and one article about adult in Biology (in most wikipedias, such as the English one, both aspects are referred to in one article), and in the German (de) wikipedia, there are 2 articles just because there are 2 synonyms with similar meanings, one of them more general (Human Society & Biology), and the second more specific (only biology). So in none of the 3 the distinction is between adult and adulthood.

I am therefore moving all articles from Q378915 to here, except for the 3 mentioned above (from de, nn and cv) that will be moved to a new item Q55568825 (Adult (Biology)). Orielno (talk) 19:53, 15 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

according to the current class hierarchy, "adult" is a datatype.

[edit]

I was doing a pretty simple query involving instance of/subclass of* datatype, and this item was one of the results.

I'm not exactly sure why, I can't find the offending item after poking around the class hierarchy a bit, perhaps someone more knowledgeable than me can figure this out. I'm also worried I would accidentally break something by changing classes of stuff. Binarycat32 (talk) 22:11, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
