[Dbpedia-discussion] FW: Editor permissions for dbpedia mappings

2011-05-03 Thread René Peinl

Hi Max,I've sent the email attached below several days ago to the mailing list, 
but got now answer yet. I know that all of you are doing the job voluntarily 
and have other things to do, but it is really demotivating, if you want to 
contribute, but cannot. Is there a chance to get editor permissions any time 
soon?RegardsRené

Dear dbpedia authors,I'm a full time professor at the University of applied 
sciences in Hof, Germany. As part of my research on unified information access, 
I'd like to add an ontology class SnookerPlayer as a subclass of Athlete and 
also add an Infobox mapping for the English Wikipedia. It's only a small number 
of individuals in the according categories, but I'd like to get an 
understanding of how it works. From my perspective, the best thing is to 
contribute in order to understand it from inside out.Since there is currently 
the snooker world championship taking place, I thought I'd start with the 
category http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Top_16_snooker_players and then 
maybe extend it to cover other subcategories of 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Snooker_playersBy the way: by using the 
neofonie browser http://dbpedia.neofonie.de/browse/ and gFacet 
http://www.visualdataweb.org/gfacet/gfacet.php, I found out, that some classes 
are not really intuitive and from seeing the Wikipedia categories I start to 
understand the reasons behind. Is there a way to map different Wikipedia 
categories to the same dbpedia ontology? I don't think it is a good idea to mix 
subclasses and properties, since in my case the categories (e.g. 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Welsh_snooker_players) already include 
what should be modeled as a property called Sport country in the 
infobox.Thanks in advanceRené--

Hi Rene,

you silently got editor permissions last week, so you should be ready
to go to write mappings ;)

Cheers,
Max

Re: [Dbpedia-discussion] German version of 3.6 download files broken/truncated?

2011-05-03 Thread Max Jakob
Hi Baran,

sorry to disappoint you, but we will not be able to update the public
SPARQL end point before the next release.

All I will be able to offer is full dump files for the German data.
Are you interested in those dump files?

Best,
Max

 Hi Baran,

 sorry for the delayed answer.

 Of course your observation is correct. Those files are truncated for a
 reason I cannot explain at the moment. But I can see to uploading
 complete versions early next week.

 Is that ok for you?

 Cheers,
 Max


 Hello Max,

 yes, that is ok, next week, we say from Wednesday on, i will begin
 checking online

 http://dbpedia.org/sparql

 with my app. And when i get again problems i will report on them here.

 Thank you very much, also to Neubert and Anja, their contribution to
 this issue was essential, Baran
