Inappropriate constraint

[edit]

The coat of arms image (P94) constraint is inappropriate for two reasons:

  1. There might be an item for a CoA even if there is no (free) renditions of it.
  2. If there is an item about the CoA it would be more appropriate to have a image (P18) statement there than a coat of arms image (P94) statement on the first item. The image is primarilly a property of the CoA item and downstream conshmers should look for an image there if that item exists (by contrast we don't have the picture of the current head of state on the country item but on the item for that person).

Unless someone objects I'll remove that constraint.

By contrast it would probably be fair to add a constraint to coat of arms image (P94) that it should not be used when a coat of arms (P237) claim is found. /Lokal Profil (talk) 22:32, 8 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Expand to also include Achievement

[edit]

It probably makes sense to expand this to be the coat of arms (Q14659) or achievement (Q2532754) of the item (see w:en:Achievement_(heraldry) for the distinction). Where the latter exists the former is most often described as a part of it. /Lokal_Profil 23:04, 8 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
