Motivation

Don't have a motivation, I just saw the need for this kind of data Dr03ramos (talk) 02:44, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

Also, there's probably the need to create a "medal tier" property, or use applies to part, aspect, or form (P518) instead. --Dr03ramos (talk) 03:00, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

Discussion

With the proposed property number of awards a property similar to this has already been proposed. The problem with the property number of awards was that the creator at the time didn't really think through its property. You, Dr03ramos, did it better here, of course. Perhaps your idea can be included in the property number of awards, because Olympic medals or medals in general are nothing more than awards. --Gymnicus (talk) 09:14, 28 July 2021 (UTC)

• I support making a general number of awards property, but oppose making it specific to Olympic medals. — The Erinaceous One 🦔 07:58, 4 August 2021 (UTC)
•  Support Useful property, but might become messy if people start doing timelines (i.e. adding a new statement every time someone wins a medal during the olympics, instead of changing the value). Time-lining should be discouraged from start. TiagoLubiana (talk) 12:14, 5 August 2021 (UTC)
