Motivation[edit]
This is another Wikidata property related to law and justice (Q22984026) for Japan (Q17), which can link Japanese law items to a full-text database recently published from Nagoya University (Q1191132). This would be quite useful because it provides XML-ified full texts for historical acts and imperial ordinances. To differentiate from existing properties, e-GOV law ID (P8610) also provides XML-ified full text, but it only covers currently effective laws. NDL law ID (P8635) has almost equivalent time coverage, but it just links to an index entry. Mzaki (talk) 03:55, 10 February 2024 (UTC)

Additionally, I have a concern about the label. On their website, they call it 法令データベース (lit. "Law Database"). It is too much general name, so I added "JAHIS," taken from the hostname of the URL, possibly standing for their project name, JApan History Information Studies. However, I'm not confident this would be the best way. Suggestions are welcome. --Mzaki (talk) 04:04, 10 February 2024 (UTC)

- @Camillu87, Gminky, Okkn: any thoughts? --Mzaki (talk) 12:37, 20 February 2024 (UTC)
Support It is a database of a trusted publisher and is worth creating a property for. --Okkn (talk) 21:47, 21 February 2024 (UTC)- Support – The preceding unsigned comment was added by Gminky (talk • contribs) at 11:06, 23 February 2024 (UTC).
