Problem
For critical writings, we have a bunch of "types" (i.e. instance of (P1) items) that came from the ELMCIP Publication Type. For creative works we only have a few.
For creative works, all items are instance of (P1) creative work (Q804). Any other instance of (P1) claims are added as an addition. For critical writings, they are only instance of (P1) their Publication Type. There is nothing linking them together.
We have a few options with downsides for each:
- Apply a standard instance of (P1) statement to all critical writings.
- Problem is that we would be assigning Wikidata items where they are not assigned in Wikidata
- Create our own item like "critical writing"
- Want to avoid custom items that aren't linked to Wikidata
- Create our own property like "Work Type"
- Want to avoid custom properties that aren't linked to Wikidata
- Subclass critical writings with an item like "scholarly work" or a custom item like "critical writing"
- Can't browse all critical writings. Have to use the Query Service.
- Track creative work instance types and critical writing instance types outside of the Wikibase (i.e. maintain a private list of what is what)
- Our dataset can't be as easily reproduced by others

If the publication type was "Other" I used work (Q66).
If publication type was missing I used publication (Q48). This is confusing because "Book (Collection)" also uses publication (Q48).

Item Usage Questions
anthology (Q40)
Most commonly used with form of creative work (wikidata) and not instance of (P1).
Usage count:
- 1597 - form of creative work
- 245 - main subject

- 118 - instance of
Anthologies don't "cites work" they "has part(s)"
Wikidata Divergence
HTML
HTML (Q95) instance of (P1) programming language (Q7004)
Wikidata has HTML as a markup language which is a data description language which they specify as being opposite of a programming language.
The property programmed in requires items of type programming language or application programming interface. HTML is also a web API which is a subclass of application programming interface so it is allowed to be used with the programmed in property despite Wikidata specifically saying HTML is the opposite of a programming language.
This is the only case where we have a "programming language" that is not a "programming language." We want HTML to show up in our interfaces when users look for programming language items. The complexity is not worth it for us to distinguish between markup languages and programming languages. Thus we say that HTML is a programming language, even though Wikidata does not.
