Please let there be a qualifier for Kenderes as it is not self-explanatory what this in the infobox on wikipedia. We can't assume that every Wikipedia has an article on Kenderes. Erik den yngre (talk) 17:09, 20 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Erik den yngre: Then that Wikipedia should query the next smallest administrative unit it has article on (this is not that difficult using Lua). We can’t assume, either, that it has an article on Jász-Nagykun-Szolnok County; maybe it has only on Hungary. And when that particular Wikipedia does have an article on Kenderes, adding the county is redundant and unusual (in contrast to the United States, where “Redmond, Washington” is a totally usual thing, we don’t say things like “Kenderes, Jász-Nagykun-Szolnok” – there’s only one Kenderes in the whole country). Also, Wikidata is a database, data duplication should be avoided whenever possible, and in this case, it’s possible, since the county can be queried in all ways the birth place itself can be queried. —Tacsipacsi (talk) 19:25, 20 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, but this answer is not helpful. So let me rephrase: Is it harmful to specify that Horthy was born in Kenderes, Kingdom of Hungary (which is not the same as the modern republic)? Erik den yngre (talk) 16:01, 25 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
