Dear all,

working on a semantic mediawiki and implementing a data structure on our wiki we are trying to re-use as many properties and classes as possible from DBPedia.

However I am totally confused how to refer to the properties & classes.

Can someone please point out to me what the correct URI for properties and classes is?

E.g. I would like to use:

Address, as specified within Theatre:
http://mappings.dbpedia.org/server/ontology/classes/Theatre

The URIs of classes start with "http://dbpedia.org/ontology";, so the URI of that class will be "http://dbpedia.org/ontology/Theatre";


or OpeningYear within Building:
http://mappings.dbpedia.org/server/ontology/classes/Building

The URIs of properties start with "http://dbpedia.org/ontology"; as well, so the URI of that property is "http://dbpedia.org/ontology/openingYear";


also, how to I reference to a class, e.g. Band:
http://mappings.dbpedia.org/server/ontology/classes/Band

Simply, you can refer to the class using its full URI, e.g. "http://dbpedia.org/ontology/Band";


due to the different mappings, wikis and other references, I am at loss which is the correct URI for these properties & classes, so that I can reference them in our semantic mediawiki.

We are using the mappings wiki [1] to map a specific Wikipedia infobox, e.g. infobox of a "Book", to a class in the DBpedia ontology, e.g. ontology class "Book". We also use it to map the individual attributes of the infobox to properties in the ontology, e.g. attribute "translator" in the book infobox is mapped to property "translator" in the ontology.

This wiki is open for contribution, so people can register themselves to it and ask for write access, and afterwards they can help us in improving the DBpedia mappings.


E.g. I am trying to implement this here and need the correct URI for that:
http://wiki.rockinchina.com/w/MediaWiki:Smw_import_db

Thanks a lot for your help!
