Gamepedia Wiki id
[edit]Originally proposed at Wikidata:Property proposal/Creative work
| Description | The wiki name on Gamepedia |
|---|---|
| Data type | External identifier |
| Domain | video game (Q7889) |
| Allowed values | [a-z0-9-]+ |
| Example 1 | World of Warcraft (Q131007) → wow |
| Example 2 | Magic: The Gathering (Q207302) → mtg (the Fandom counterpart is merging into this one) |
| Example 3 | Civilization VI (Q24050047) → civ6 (no equivalent on Fandom, which has a wiki for the series instead) |
| Example 4 | Endless Legend (Q18215873) → endlesslegend (this one is apparently the literal official wiki) |
| Number of IDs in source | as of submitting this proposal, 2,345, but there are likely a sizeable number that have or can have no match on WikiData (e.g. Civ 6 Customization wiki) |
| Expected completeness | eventually complete (Q21873974) |
| Formatter URL | https://$1.gamepedia.com/ |
| See also | P6623 (P6623), Fandom article ID (P6262), Fandom wiki ID (P4073) |
Motivation
[edit]This property seems like a reasonable way to complete the set between P6623 (P6623), Fandom article ID (P6262) and Fandom wiki ID (P4073). It's kinda surprising it was forgotten given the differences in coverage that may exist. Circeus (talk) 19:44, 16 May 2019 (UTC)
EDIT: I just found out that Fandom has acquired Gamepedia's parent company back in december and has a plan for merging the wikis. However, it seems clear (as test merges were performed in both direction) that Gamepedia and Fandom will remain separate at least for the time being. This may, however, impact the longer-term validity of both Fandom- and Gamepedia-related IDs.
