Hello, For the Portuguese monuments we are using P2186 with a value prefixed by PT (to avoid ID conflicts) and followed by: * A monument ID, when there is one * An unique ID given by ourselves, when it's not practical to use the monument ID, or when there is no monument ID at all in addition to that, we have a number of specific monument IDs, but we don't use them directly for WLM or WLE (and it was a mistake to even attempt to use them initially, it only brought a lot of confusion)
Personally, I support uniformization in P2186, using country prefixes or some other strategy, in addition to any specific monument that may exist.
