Yes, if it was unclear from my comments I can try to clarify again here. From an API user perspective my preferences are (from most preferred to least preferred): 1. `wikibase-entityid` datavalue type, for consistency with the targeted user experience (EntitySchemas being entities themselves) 2. `string` datavalue type, which is inconsistent with the UX but has the benefit of being an established datavalue type, which any existing API client library is bound to support already (Wikidata-Toolkit, Wikibase-SDK, pywikibot, …) 3. A new datavalue type, which will likely require some light changes in most API client libraries, and perhaps lead to failures of various severities until those changes are made (for those which have not anticipated the introduction of new datavalue types) TASK DETAIL https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T339920 EMAIL PREFERENCES https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/settings/panel/emailpreferences/ To: Pintoch Cc: Tpt, WMDE-leszek, Michael, Lucas_Werkmeister_WMDE, Arian_Bozorg, Pintoch, Aklapper, Danny_Benjafield_WMDE, Astuthiodit_1, karapayneWMDE, Invadibot, maantietaja, ItamarWMDE, Akuckartz, pdehaye, Nandana, Lahi, Gq86, Andrawaag, GoranSMilovanovic, QZanden, YULdigitalpreservation, LawExplorer, Salgo60, _jensen, rosalieper, Scott_WUaS, MisterSynergy, abian, Wikidata-bugs, aude, Lydia_Pintscher, Mbch331
