Good to see these dbs uploaded and many thanks to all.
Very, very sad, however, that someone has opted for an union jack / uk template for
properties relevant to the Welsh Nation (see the Talk pages); very political - and the
best way to turn off any Welsh people away from Wikidata and Wikimedia. We need to work
with our diverse community, not against them!
I've created a new 'Template:Wales properties' but the rest also needs to be
corrected and any uploads relevant to Scotland should be under Scotland, NOT the
'United' kingdom.
Please keep politics out of Wikimedia projects; many people are insulted by the use of
"UK" - Wales has never agreed to any 'Union' / 'UK' which was
only enforced upon us by the power of the English sword, not democracy.
The English WP discussed whether Wales is a country for many moons
(
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Wales/Archive_country_poll); and the outcome (after
many discussions) was that yes, it is a country. I hope WD will respect that decision, by
using Category:Wales / Template:Wales rather than Category:UK etc etc.

Hi folks,
In the past few days, the following Wales-related properties have been
created in Wikidata:
Welsh Chapels ID -
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P4641
Welsh assembly ID -
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P4651
Coflein ID -
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P4658
(the latter is "for an historic site, monument or building in the
National Monuments Record of Wales database")
