Template:Qid/doc

This template is a wrapper for function followQid in Module:WikidataIB

Usage

It takes two optional parameters: |qid= and |props=

• If qid is not given, it uses the qid for the connected page or returns nil if there isn't one.
• props is a list of properties, separated by any normal punctuation.
• If props is given, the Wikidata item for the qid is examined for each property in turn.
• If a property of the Wikidata item contains a value that is another Wikibase-item, then that item's qid is returned, and the search terminates.
• If props is not given, the qid is returned.

Example

1. Searching Subgraph isomorphism in graph classes (Q29031096) for instance of (P31)
   • {{qid |qid=Q29031096 |props=P31}} → Q13442814

   This is the entity-id for scholarly article (Q13442814).

2. Pasting {{qid}} into Category:Matterhorn produces Q7485316 (the Wikidata entity-id for Category:Matterhorn (Q7485316)).
