Support. This looks like a useful property for describing plant uses in Wikidata.
Are all entries plants? If so the domain can be more narrow and the name can be "PFaF plant ID". ChristianKl (talk) 08:49, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I renamed to "PFaF plant ID". ChristianKl (talk) 12:47, 22 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The datatype should be changed to URL, because this one is not an ID. E.g. Castanea_sativa gives the same result as Castanea+sativa. --Succu (talk) 17:54, 23 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- @ArthurPSmith: You changed the datatype. Which one is the correct ID? --Succu (talk) 20:19, 4 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This seems OK. I am not too worried about the datatype. - Brya (talk) 04:23, 25 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Comment I've changed the datatype as proposed, and have tried to adjust the allowed values. Please check and then I think this is ready to go. --99of9 (talk) 06:50, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose as URL, Support as external ID, which the majority of the support above is for. This is also in keeping with many other of our external ID properties. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 12:18, 4 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Also: >17K matches, as IDs, already in Mix'n'Match. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 15:56, 4 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  - I'm sure Magnus will create the rest, as he allways does. This will include more garbage into our knowledge base. E.g. & (Q41215531) is an example for this. --Succu (talk) 20:12, 4 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Done @D1gggg, ChristianKl, Succu, Brya, Pigsonthewing, ArthurPSmith: created as PfaF ID (P4301). Enjoy! --99of9 (talk) 05:06, 7 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
