Propose disambiguatingDescription on Thing #880

Description

@vickitardif

Systems like Wikipedia/WikiData often have a short description to help disambiguate entities. For example, the Wikipedia page for "Phobos" lists the many entities by that name, allowing users to determine the page for the Greek god vs a moon of Mars, or the comic book character.

Wikidata calls this property "description", but I think we want something different so consumers do not need to determine which description is the disambiguator and which is the true description.

I would like to add disambiguatingDescription or even disambiguator to Thing.
