I disagree Aubrey - I feel that in no case work item and edition item
should be merged into one. They are deeply different entities, and they
deserve a specific ID (IMHO).

A good example: Treasure Island from Roberl Luis
Stevenson
We have the "work" here:
Treasure Island
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q185118
in the item, we have a property called "edition", which links to 2
different items:
* Treasure Island (1883, Cassell & Company)
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q14944007
* Treasure Island (1911, Charles Scribner's Sons)
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q14944010
I would say that this is a good model: we have the item for the first
edition too, for books that important.
For the majority of books (those who don't have important translations or
different editions), "work" and "edition" level could be merged in
the
same, unique item.
Of course, wiki-style: if you want a different item, you just create it.
The basic level is a single item.
What do you say?
Do we agree on this?
Aubrey
