Possibility to specify multiple type_id (instance of) for an entity to reconcile

Open GO5IT opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

I wonder if it is possible to specify multiple type_id for an entity.

For example, a case study would be: I would like to search entities which are either city (Q6256) or country (Q). Then, an autosuggest service can only shows (or prioritize) the entities of these types over other types.

If it is not possible, is there any plan to implement it? I think this functionality would be nice.

Many thanks in advance!

Hi! Such a feature is not yet available.

Development in this project is a bit stagnated because I have many other priorities at the moment so it might be a while before I get to it. But it sounds like a totally reasonable feature to implement. Thank you for the suggestion!

In case you want to try your hand at implementing it yourself, you're more than welcome to do so and submit a pull request.

Thanks a lot for your interest in reconciler.

Thanks for the reply. We started a discussion in OpenRefine community support. There are people who are thinking about this feature too, so I think you can participate there too to make it happen together.
