Describe the problem

Opening an issue for the change in #2821 so that we have a record of it in the list referenced from the change log.

First requested in #2818 (comment) :

Rereading all that tells me that the "property data type" is not the optimal term. We say that a "property data type" is used in the property attribute, but also in other attributes, which makes it confusing to me. Would it be possible to change the "property data type" to something else?

It could be shortened URL, abbreviated URL... The RDF Turtle spec uses the term prefixed name which we could reuse after all, or use prefixed value for what it is. I am sure there are other alternatives.

Describe the fix or new feature you propose

Rename the data type to "Compact URL".
