Meaning

@Laddo, Poulpy:. This item defines colums as subclasses of Template:Q192784, matching Wikipedia's definition of a colum. But what do we do with "columns" that do not fit into that definition like victory column (Q1930585) ? --Zolo (talk) 11:24, 9 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@Zolo: IMHO it is an error to derive victory column (Q1930585)  

from column (Q4817)  

: Q4817 represents the basic functional architectural element, having a structural role, like a pier (Q335297)  

(distinct also from pilaster (Q175112)  

that is decorative rather than structural). victory column (Q1930585)  

is a monument that happens to look like a column. If you can locate an item representing vertical architectural elements that are non-structural, then you might have a valid parent class (and for pilaster (Q175112)  

as well). LaddΩ chat ;) 21:54, 9 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@Laddo:. It seems to make sense (even though the illustration of en:Column doesn't help), but if the item does not exist yet, I think we need to create one. Any idea for the label ? --Zolo (talk) 13:02, 17 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

@Zolo: "decorative column" or "non-supporting column"? I'll leave that to you, though. LaddΩ chat ;) 22:10, 17 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Removed subclass of "support" and "shape"

Because both of them have superclasses that imply this is non-physical, which isn't true. JesseW (talk) 00:17, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
