TASK DESCRIPTION
  As of now https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q18644427 (obsolete Wikidata 
property) has two subclasses, https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q60457486 (Wikidata 
property for a discontinued website; 59 properties use it as "instance of") and 
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q108951239 (Wikidata property for a former 
identification scheme; 26 properties use it as "instance of"). Out of 9742 
properties, 6920 have the datatype external-id; 85 properties, nearly in all 
cases with datatype external-id (about 1.2% of the external identifiers), are 
obsolete and their number will obviously grow.
  
  I propose:
  
  1. to reflect if, in order to mark these external IDs as obsolete, using 
"instance of" with the two aforementioned values is the best option or if we 
need a different way to mark obsolescence
  2. to create a subsection Obsolete identifiers in the present section 
Identifiers for storing these obsolete external IDs (the external IDs going 
into this subsection could maybe be managed through 
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Wikibase-SortedProperties)
  3. to make the subsection Obsolete identifiers collapsible and to give 
registered users the possibility to autocollapse it through Preferences > 
Appearence (or > Gadgets)
