Nice work. It is interesting to see how many URIs can be used for values in the record; I hadn't seen anyone attempt that before.
One thing that bothers me is this: <dimensionsManifestation> 21 cm </dimensionsManifestation> ...in that it is not convenient for computation. At the risk of bringing in yet another vocabulary, this would seem to be best expressed as: <dimensionsManifestation xmlns:dbpedia="http://dbpedia.org/resource/"> <dbpedia:Centimeter>21</dbpedia:Centimeter> </dimensionsManifestation> That brings with it all of the appropriate abbreviations and label translations.
