Usage Advice
Use when
- Use for a telephone contact point modelled as a first-class node — when its usage role, provider, or tenure must be recorded — rather than a bare number string.
Avoid when
- Avoid for the plain string convenience (use the
gmeow:telephonedatatype property on the agent) and for messaging handles that merely resemble phone numbers but reach a separate account.
How to use
- Mint the number as a
TelephoneNumber, tag its role withgmeow:contactPointType, name its provider withgmeow:contactPointProvider, and carry its personal sensitivity for disclosure control.
