The upcoming SMW release 1.4.3 will introduce a property that helps to find 
input errors: its value will be the page of the property that the wrong value 
was assigned to. For example, if you put

[[my date property::not a date]]

on page "Test1" (where the property would expect a valid date), then SMW will 
automatically store the value "Property:my date property" for "Test1". 

This is surely useful for maintenance. The question is how to call this new 
special property. Sufficiently descriptive names tend to be unwieldy, as for 
example "error for property" or "input error for". The point is that the 
property takes another property as its value, not an error message.

User poll: How would you prefer this to be called?
