Thanks Lydia. Hmm, It seems owned by (P127) already had that "start time"
"end time" on its allowed qualifiers constraint. But I did not get any
qualifier hints. But as you said, this must be beta, or I need something turned on ?
Beta features can be turned on here:
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatur…
In Freebase, we had "date mediation" where
these things were automatically bolted on when we said a property was of a type "Date
Mediator" then it automatically got 2 extra fields of FROM: TO: which are like
Wikidata's "start time" "end time".
It would be really cool to see simplification in Wikidata to ease the pain. Imagine, I
just place 1 statement or constraint on a property to say that
property = value type constraint -> class -> date mediator
That's the general direction we're taking it, yeah.
Cheers
Lydia
