The feature

Instead of a string of letters and numbers (P2397) use subject named as (P1810). The property 'topic named as' is automatically added by a bot, so no additional action is required from the community.

Why?

  • Cleaner than a random string
  • Better differentiate between channels
  • Useful for countries with multiple official languages and multiple channels.
  • Easier to detect errors on the website.

I think this is a good idea. We just need to make sure that it is optional and that we have a fallback if the bot hasn't added this yet when we do an update.

Just a reminder to ourselves that besides adding this to the query, we should also use similar logic in the script in the org page that dynamically checks for recent updates.
