Help:Modelling/Arts
See Help:Modelling/Home for notation, intended audience.
The following subsections cover various domains related to the arts. The intent here is:
- to provide examples of modeling items in these various domains.
- to indicate where to find further discussion of modeling items in these domains.
Arts[edit]
Visual arts[edit]
See Wikidata:WikiProject Visual arts, especially Wikidata:WikiProject Visual arts/Item structure.
Books[edit]
See Wikidata:WikiProject Books.
Fiction[edit]
see Wikidata:WikiProject_Fictional_universes and Wikidata:WikiProject_Narration
Stories[edit]
- Cinderella (Q11841) is a European folk tale
- Cinderella (Q2944224) is Charles Perrault's 1697 version of that tale.
- Cinderella (Q191753) is the 1950 Disney film of that tale.
So for, example, we might have:
| The Perrault work makes the folk tale manifest, by writing down a fixed version. | |
| The Disney film is based on the Perrault work. |
Fictional characters[edit]
If a fictional character is human, it should be an instance of fictional human (Q15632617). If it is not human, but has most characteristics of personhood, it is an instance of fictional character (Q95074). There are also many choices like fictional horse (Q2962925) and the more general fictional equine (Q27303980); fictional dog (Q15720625) and the more general fictional Canis (Q27304428); the still more general fictional animal character (Q3542731) (also, for a species rather than an individual, fictional species of animal (Q15702752)); and the even more general fictional entity (Q14897293).
- Cinderella (Q11841) is a European folk tale
- Cinderella (Q13685096) is the title character of that tale.
- Cinderella (Q2944224) is Charles Perrault's 1697 version of that tale.
- Cinderella (Q191753) is the 1950 Disney film of that tale.
- Cinderella (Q2559332) is the Disney version of the title character of that tale.
So for, example, we might have:
| The Perrault work makes the folk tale manifest, by writing down a fixed version. | |
| The Disney film is based on the Perrault work. | |
| The character Cinderella is present in the tale Cinderella. | |
| The Disney character Cinderella is present in the film Cinderella. | |
| The Disney character is said to be the same as the traditional character, but that identity is subject to dispute. |

- Example item : Sherlock Holmes (Q3481943), 1899 play by William Gillette and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Some properties:
- Complicated case : Cinderella (Q5120428) Frederick Ashton's 1948 ballet, inspired by the 1945 Prokofiev ballet Zoluška (Q144545), itself inspired by the Cinderella story. Some properties:
- Based on the Prokofiev ballet:
- Also, lists featured roles in the original cast; e.g.
| cast member |
| ||||||||||||
| add value | |||||||||||||
- However, it appears this last may be considered a controversial approach. While there is no definitive guidance, some participants would prefer to model the original production as a separate thing from the ballet as such, and associate the cast members only with that particular production.
- Complicated case : Agamemnon (Q3320792) Greek tragedy that is part of a trilogy, with multiple modern translations. Quite possibly worth looking at in its entirety, but here are a few properties particularly worth noting.
- Anna Swanwick's 1886 English translation

- Leconte de Lisle's 1872 French translation
