Discussion
[edit]- Comment In this case the id's seem to be just the ISBN's, which could be handled by a 3rd party formatter URL statement I think? Unless I'm missing something here. ArthurPSmith (talk) 20:56, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
- @ArthurPSmith: Your excellent comment is fair and relevant, and I think a dedicated property for the publisher Oxford University Press (Q217595) is very useful in the Wikidata database. It also seems to me that many academic publishers currently only use ISBN-13 (P212) identifiers, and Wikidata should support them after a discussion on this topic. Indeed, the publishers Harvard University Press (Q1587900), New York University Press (Q7014807),Columbia University Press (Q2080179), Taylor & Francis (Q880582), De Gruyter (Q98818), etc., also use ISBN-13 numbers to identify their books, but it should also be noted that the property Amazon Standard Identification Number (P5749) of the large publishing house Amazon Books (Q22906322) uses the ISBN-10 (P957) number as an identifier for the books it offers on the market. Therefore, we must obtain a consensus to include in Wikidata the many publishers who have opted for ISBN-13 identifiers, as is the case for Amazon Books. Regards.
