This item has the subclasses applies to nodes (P33), applies to ways (P34), applies to areas (P35), applies to relations (P36), and use on changesets (P37).

Is this used/useful?

Or can this be deleted? Zimtschnecke (talk) 10:41, 26 March 2026 (UTC)Reply

I do not understand, why are you so eager to delete "unused" items. This item, just like Q19765, is "useful" for ontology completeness, if nothing else. YjM (talk) 21:54, 3 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
As I understand it, the goal for OSM wikibase is not to have an ontology of everything OSM, but to documented the OSM database tags. We do not have any Properties for anything else after all. In addition, this was marked as a "translation item / This item is used for various UI translation on the Wiki pages", for which it was not used. UI translation is also not something to be done with data items. -- Zimtschnecke (talk) 03:20, 4 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
There is at least one case that just came to mind where data items are used for translation: Template:StatusLang --Chris2map (talk) 15:35, 4 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
But that is not UI translation? In any case, none of the three items in question are used anywhere as far as I can tell, expect as noted above... -- Zimtschnecke (talk) 17:41, 4 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
