Bolded properties are considered core if the information is available. All others are optional according to cataloger's judgment and what else is known about the person.
Asterisked (*) properties generally should have at least one reference to justify the statement. Double-asterisked (**) properties generally do not need a reference, but include one if you judge it to be helpful to support the statement you are making.
| Property | Value | Qualifiers if applicable | Usage Note | |
|---|---|---|---|---|

Property is required by Wikidata. Record "unknown" unless you're sure of another value. Generally a reference is not required for binary genders like male and female. Others should probably be supported by references. | ||
| date of birth (P569) * | if date is approximate: include qualifier sourcing circumstances (P1480), which used for qualification of the truth or accuracy of a source. Values can include: circa (Q5727902), near (Q21818619), presumably (Q18122778), etc. if you need to refine a date, use the qualifier refine date (P4241); for example to say someone was born in the fall of 1956, use 1956 as the date of birth and add qualifier refine date (P4241) with value autumn (Q1314) |
|||
| date of death (P570) * | if date is approximate: include qualifier sourcing circumstances (P1480), which is used for qualification of the truth or accuracy of a source. Values can include: circa (Q5727902), near (Q21818619), presumably (Q18122778), etc. if you need to refine a date, use the qualifier refine date (P4241); for example to say someone died in the fall of 1956, use 1956 as the date of death and add qualifier refine date (P4241) with value autumn (Q1314) |
|||

Also include other values based on field of work, such as "chemist", "wood chemist", "political scientist", "Indologist", "civil engineer", "medical researcher", "violinist", etc. Replace items that just say "researcher" with more specific occupations. Create new items for occupation if needed. |
Consider "professor" to be a title, not an occupation. | ||
| field of work (P101) ** | The person's discipline or specialty, e.g., "sociology", "marine ecology", "music history", "Canadian studies". Give multiple values if needed. Create new items for field of work if needed. | |||

if known: start time (P580) end time (P582) position held (P39) - e.g., "associate professor" |
For universities, give the university as a whole rather than a particular school or department. For the department(s) they are in, see academic appointment (P8413) | |
| academic appointment (P8413) * | Specific school or department faculty are appointed to. | position held (P39) if known, start time (P580) end time (P582) |
Not same as affiliation (P1416) | |

| member of (P463) * | organization, musical group, or club to which the subject belongs. Do not use for membership in ethnic or social groups, nor for holding a position such as a member of parliament (use P39 for that). This is a subproperty of affiliation. | |||
| ethnic group (P172) * | Person's ethnicity | Consensus is that a VERY high standard of proof is needed for this to be used. In general this means 1) the subject claims it themselves, or 2) it is widely agreed on by scholars. | ||

Not same as a user ID, for which there is no property. You can get a channel ID from a user URL. There are websites that convert them, for example: https://commentpicker.com/youtube-channel-id.php. Another simple way is go to the YouTube site from the username URL and click a video of the channel (in its "VIDEOS" tab) and click the channel name on the video. That will take you to the page with its "channel" URL. | ||
