Motivation

[edit]

We are creating Wikidata items for buildings on the University of Washington campus, and would like to be able to include the Emporis company ID as a property for the architectural firms and construction companies responsible for the buildings. See examples 6-7 above of a firm with headquarters in two cities that has two Emporis IDs but one Wikidata item. Multiple Emporis company IDs should be permitted in a Wikidata item.
