Usage

edit

{{#invoke:Is instance|main|qid=|value=}}

This module will use Wikidata properties instance of (P31) and subclass of (P279) to determine whether or not an entity is an instance of some other entity.

Example

edit

For example:

To know that HMS Ark Royal (Q847672) is an instance of ship (Q11446), you can use:

{{#invoke:Is instance|main|qid=Q847672|value=Q11446}} = 3

The output number indicates the minimum recursion depth to find the value required. An output of zero indicates that the item is not an instance.

Maximum depth

edit

For performance considerations, the module will not go on searching indefinitely. The default maximum recursion depth is 5. If you want to change this, use the |maxdepth= parameter.
