== Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei ID (P14091) ==

The Wikidata property is [[:d:Property:P14091|P14091]]. This academy has 3,178 members (records), including the past ones.

I tried to add it to [[Module:Authority control/config/sandbox]] but for some reason the pattern doesn't work; it should appear after P10299. [[User:Ilaria.bonincontro|Ilaria.bonincontro]] ([[User talk:Ilaria.bonincontro|talk]]) 11:27, 4 February 2026 (UTC)

*And here how it looks like:

:Don't know if that's a typical link, but there is very limited information given — Martin ([[User:MSGJ|MSGJ]] · [[User talk:MSGJ|talk]]) 15:49, 4 February 2026 (UTC)
::The site seems to be in the state of expansion. Another example:

*'''Support''' Comparable to Leopoldina, ADK, Academia Europeana. '''[[User:Grimes2|Grimes]][[User talk:Grimes2|2]]''' 16:19, 4 February 2026 (UTC)
*'''Comment''' (I don't put "Support" because I have been actively involved in creating the ID and in adding it systematically to Wikidata) IMHO it contains the same amount of data as the IDs of other scientific academies, as Leopoldina, and it has a national relevance in Italy. --[[User:Epìdosis|'''Epì''']][[User talk:Epìdosis|'''dosis''']] 07:35, 20 March 2026 (UTC)

== DBA ID (P4992) ==

Could DBA ID (P4992) be added to the template? It links to the ''Nouveau Dictionnaire de Biographie Alsacienne'' for famous people connected with Alsace. The ID is simply appended to <code>https://www.alsace-histoire.org/netdba/</code> to make a URL. [[User:Chuntuk|Chuntuk]] ([[User talk:Chuntuk|talk]]) 11:03, 16 March 2026 (UTC)

{{Authority control/sandbox|qid=Q903471}} '''[[User:Grimes2|Grimes]][[User talk:Grimes2|2]]''' 15:21, 16 March 2026 (UTC)

:We have in the past rejected sub-national databases which only cover one particular region. There are 1749 uses of {{Q|P4992}} — Martin ([[User:MSGJ|MSGJ]] · [[User talk:MSGJ|talk]]) 16:10, 17 March 2026 (UTC)

== Goodreads author? ==

If we have Librarything for authors we might as well have Goodreads. It has a pretty alright and comprehensive catalog of authors. [[User:PARAKANYAA|PARAKANYAA]] ([[User talk:PARAKANYAA|talk]]) 01:02, 24 March 2026 (UTC)

:Goodreads generates different identifiers for each language an author's work is translated into. The Goodreads Librarian Manual dictates the standard Roman version should be used as the 'primary author' across all translations. Only that specific English-language identifier provides the single, unified match required for the Authority control. However, would it be easy to model that constraint? And would editors reliably use the preferred rank to maintain it? [[User:PKalnai|PKalnai]] ([[User talk:PKalnai|talk]]) 07:56, 13 April 2026 (UTC)

We need to stop with the idea that "if your website adds a unique identifier to subjects, it can be included in our Wkikipedia footer". It's an unreliable, commercial site, usually not worth adding to external links even, so why would we automatically include it in thousands of articles just because it has an "authority" ID? People who really need these can use Wikidata for it, or Goodreads directly of course. First one I checked, for [[Tom Lanoye]]: the bio is a copyvio of our one it seems, just rearranging and very slightly rewriting some sentences[https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/316188.Tom_Lanoye].
