types of properties and values

you can see the type of property when you click on the property when logged in.

a property can be used multiple times, for exaple I can add a text in multiple languages, or I can add multiple texts for the same vallue. This is done by using the add value button that occurs under the property, once it is created. You will see in the definition of a specific property if multiple values are allowed.

A list of properties can be found in the special page list properties

We list the most important propety types below

item

an item property refers to a page descibing a concept. It links the item/page you are working in to another item/page. Because the items are language idependant, they will change the language of the text to your set language (if it is available). When you start typing the name, you will get proposals that fit your input, based on the labels and alternative labels in the target items.

values can be described as

• "text" (Qnr) this specific value is obligatory for this type of page
• a value list, a range of values that are listed in a specific page

monolingual

Monolingual properties are expecting a value in one specific language. The language is noted in the property through a drop down menu.

Syntax (the value) can be described as

• a specific way of writing, for example "noun" or "verb - noun"
• a specific text, for example "copy of the ESCO title"
• open text, any text is allowed.

string

a string property expects a language independant text. This can be for example a code or a reference.

URL

a URL property expects a full URL, including the prefix (for example https://)

External identifier

An external identifier is a part of a URL that references to a specific page in a wabsite of data structure. The formatter URL described in the property will add this unique part to the rest of the URL and create a link. This ensures that if the URL is changed, the links stay active.

This is used for example to refer to documents or wikipages in the competencebase server.
