As a Wikibase editor, I want to be able to add references or qualifiers to statements to add more detail and context to claims. When federation is enabled, I want to do this using both my own local properties and remote properties from a second source.
//For example: A statement about a local item could consist of of a federated property (Wikidata P31, instance of) with a specialized local property as a qualifier and a remote property (Wikidata P854, reference URL) for the reference. //
**Questions to answer:**
- As with T285291 Should the user always be shown BOTH local and remote properties in the search results when adding qualifiers and references?Decisions made:**
- If yes, how should th- The users should always be shown both local and remote properties be displayed? ies in the search results when adding qualifiers and references
- If no,Local properties should be sorted above remote properties in the results as they are more specific to the local Wikibase project
**Guidance for future**
During a later step, we intend to make it possible for users to distinguish whether a property in the results list is local or remote. should the user instead select their property source before searching for properties when adding a qualifier and when adding a reference?The current thinking is that this would be shown visually with an icon specific to remote properties.
