• getIdentifierQualifier returns the value of a qualifier for an Identifier

Functions

getIdentifierQualifier

This returns the value of a qualifier for an identifier such as (P1367).

There is an assumption is that one value exists for the property, and only one qualifier exists for that value.

Constraint violations for (P1367) are at d:Wikidata:Databasereports/Constraintviolations/P1367 #Single_value

Usage

Normally use like this within a template for use in the article concerned:

• {{#invoke:WikidataIdentifiers |getIdentifierQualifier |<property> |qual=<qualifier>}}

If used outside of the related article, an expensive version of the call is available:

• {{#invoke:WikidataIdentifiers |getIdentifierQualifier |<property> |qual=<qualifier> |qid=<Q-value for target in Wikidata}}

Examples

Retrieving the (P1114) qualifier for the (P1367) within an article:

• {{#invoke:WikidataIdentifiers |getIdentifierQualifier |P1367 |qual=P1114}}

Retrieving the (P1114) qualifier for the (P1367) for (Q5083334) outside of the article:

• {{#invoke:WikidataIdentifiers |getIdentifierQualifier |P1367 |qual=P1114 |qid=Q5083334}} →
