The more I read about it-ws Opera namespace, the more I'm interested in it.
On frws we use "multiple editions" a lot, especially on poems and short
stories, that have been published in different collections. Do you do
that too ?
Also, I had a fantasy, these past weeks, working about "work items" on
wikidata, that we could point on wikisource "work" page, whether we have
1 or multiple editions.
Presently, when, for a poem, we have only 1 edition, we put it in its
collection subpage, and keed the poem title as redirect, then transform
it to "multiple editions" when we get some. This totally prevents to add
those to wikidata, because redirects are not supported ; thus, editions
are added to work items, by adding redirects.
I was wondering whether adding a template similar to "redirect with
possibility" (enwp) could help solve this problem.
Wonder what solution would be best, considering that the creation of a
full-developped "work-page" on a poem could be tricky...
So, what do you think all of you ?
