Yes, I think once qualifiers are enabled you would just have something
like:...Property(head of local government) ... Value(Elizabeth I) -
Qualifier("1558-1603") - Sources() Value(James VI and I) -
Qualifier("1603-1625") - Sources() ......
There was a discussion about whether qualifiers should have specific datatypes
other than just string, but I think we should only do that if needed.

Subject: Re: [Wikidata-l] Expiration date for data
Thanks Denny for the update and everybody else for the feedback.
The cases I am particularly interested in are those of qualifiers to express
that "Elizabeth I was Queen of England between 1558 and 1603", or that "the
city of Vibo Valentia was in the Province of Catanzaro up to 1996, in the
Province of Vibo Valentia until 2014 and in the Province of
Catanzaro-Crotone-Vibo Valentia after 2014".
Until these qualifiers become available, the only way to represent that a
region has changed its governor is to overwrite the old value of "head of local
government" with the current one.

two or three features are still missing to enable that (sorted in order we are
probably going to deploy them):* qualifiers* the time datatype
* statement ranks
As soon as they are available, this can be modeled in a way that it can be
useful for projects accessing the data.
So, progress yet, but it's not there yet :)

Has there been any progress on time-based qualifiers since this thread?
If so, can someone point me to relevant discussions/proposals?
Thanks
