Scope note

Text

This property associates any instance of crm:E1 CRM Entity with one or more literal strings representing additional human-readable labels beyond the primary label documented using sdh-short:P9 has standard label.

Alternative labels may include, but are not limited to:

• Labels in other languages
• Historical or variant spellings
• Abbreviations, aliases, or commonly used alternative names

This property is conceptually equivalent to skos:altLabel and is likewise defined as a shortcut property to facilitate easy access to non-preferred appellations.

Semantically, this property is a shortcut for the following path: crm:E1 CRM Entity → sdh:P11i has appellation for language → sdh:C11 Appellation in a Language → sdh:P13 refers to name → crm:E41 Appellation → crm:P190 has symbolic content → crm:E62 String

This property MAY be repeated multiple times for a single instance. No ordering or preference is implied among alternative labels.

This property does not replace the explicit modelling of appellations using sdh:C11 Appellation in a Language and crm:E41 Appellation, but provides a simplified access point for applications.

The property is intended purely for presentation and identification, not for analytical or classificatory reasoning. Full appellation modelling should be preserved when detailed linguistic, historical, or contextual analysis is required.
