Motivation[edit]

The main purpose of this property would be to indicate partial notation for (1) works that are not in the public domain in the United States and (2) public-domain works that are too long to fit into a single value. Presumably, since first line (P1922) can be used on works that are not in the public domain (and references and their titles can be quoted, and so on), it would be acceptable to use this property for small amounts of copyrighted works, in order to analyze those works and/or indicate important portions of those works (e.g. qualifier object has role (P3831)riff (Q460730)).
