Template talk:Authority control
Template:Authority control is permanently protected from editing because it is a heavily used or highly visible template. Substantial changes should be proposed here first. If the proposal is uncontroversial or has been discussed and is supported by consensus, editors may use {{edit template-protected}} to notify an administrator or template editor to make the requested edit. Usually, any contributor may edit the template's documentation to add usage notes or categories.
Any contributor may edit the template's sandbox. Functionality of the template can be checked using test cases. |
This is the talk page for discussing improvements to the Authority control template. |

List of identifiers
Just noting here that a lot of the links on Template:Authority control#List of identifiers have disappeared, making the documentation page less than useful. This is due to Swpb removing Wikidata item of this property (P1629) from lots of properties on Wikidata, which this page relies on. I hope he/she is able to fix up our documentation page — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 15:35, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
- WP:BRD might be in order. ~ Tom.Reding (talk ⋅dgaf) 15:47, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
- Scanning class of non-item property value (P10726)'s talk ([1]), it looks like the familiar Wikidata item of this property (P1629) will eventually be deleted. ~ Tom.Reding (talk ⋅dgaf) 15:55, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
- The template and module are protected, so I cannot update them myself. I can work on an edit request. —swpbT • beyond • mutual 16:32, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
Tracking category for duplicate placement of this template
@MSGJ I wonder if there is a tracking category to track the pages where this template is placed more than once on the same page? Kanashimi (talk) 00:21, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
- Not to my knowledge, but we could set one up. Restricted to article space I suppose? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 08:50, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
Any update on RERO+ for Switzerland?
Hello, has there been any update on the inclusion of RERO+ as a database for Switzerland? All the previous authorities (and many updated ones) are available on the new catalogue website with an MEF ID was the new identifier. Please see the example of Winston Churchill, where his RERO+ MEF ID is 7885724. Thank you and kind regards, Spinster300 (talk) 13:00, 26 February 2024 (UTC).
- If these values and links are now stable, then perhaps it's time to propose a new property on Wikidata. Instructions are at wikidata:Project:Property creation. Let me know if I can help — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 16:45, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
- Dear Martin, as far as I am aware, these identifiers have been stable for the past year or so. I have made a proposal for the property on Wikidata here. I am not sure if I have formatted the proposal correctly, please help with that if you can. Thank you and kind regards, Spinster300 (talk) 12:55, 28 February 2024 (UTC).
- I've made a few tweaks and transcluded it to wikidata:Wikidata:Property proposal/Authority control — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 13:43, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
