Cool.

I like to be thorough  ( sameAs:
http://wordnet-rdf.princeton.edu/wn31/300312303-s ).


I'll post a note on the git repo somewhere with some examples when I get to
it.

 Does schemaorg require something that properly denotes Lexicography ?

Tim,

You explained what your problem is

"We use language to develop web-pages that have inferred human considered
meaning. Yet, the definition of these terms are not necessarily machine
readable. "

I just explained how to solve it.

And yes, your overkilling. :)

Our http://www.schema.org/sameAs property can be pointed to a dictionary
definition on the internet, or any other identity that gives more meaning
to a Thing your trying to describe.  We of course of
http://schema.org/description as well... even
http://schema.org/disambiguatingDescription so that you can make your own
definitions without even having to use sameAs.

SameAs is a property rather than a concept?

http://schema.org/sameAs

Schema.org/dictionaryTerm seems improper, but better than schema.org/Thing
with a property that says sameAs (et.al.)...

Ie: the means to explicitly reference the definition of the RDF term.

I could use the example of physician ( http://schema.org/Physician ) which
is different to the definition someone might be looking for that means
"doctor" (which might be somewhere else perhaps?)

I hope that helps explain.  Seemed having some high level schema.org term
to denote the reference refers to a dictionary term with a property that
said sameAs wikidata.org/reference, et.al.) would make more sense to bridge
the void?

Perhaps overkill...

The other referenced term was "identity" which is about as dynamic (and
important) in its different meanings as agent.

Schema.org has sameAs and other properties to refer to definitions in any
language by pointing to those upcoming lexema URLs on Wikidata.

I don't have the project url on my phone but you can search around. There a
main phabricator issue to track all the dependencies. Just search on the
Wikidata mailing list archives to get more info or subscribe to that list.

take-on alone.


I think that's the purpose of the 'wiktionary in wikidata' project. I 
started working on importing data from wiktionaries but stopped for some 
reasons.. Otherwise said, it's not readily available.




thank you.  i'll put the reference to immediate use ;)

Hi,

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Wiktionary:Main_Page but it didn't

thereafter started writing; this is where i got up to,

Project Purpose
To generate an RDF compliant dictionary and thesaurus for the
purpose of ontological reuse on the web.

PROBLEM
We use language to develop web-pages that have inferred human
considered meaning. Yet, the definition of these terms are not
necessarily machine readable.

For Example:  "identity".

When working on 'digital identity' this is often considered to
have the meaning of how people log-in to their personal accounts
or means in which to interact with their personal data; or that
of others.   HOWEVER, identity can also mean 'sameness'; which
can also be useful for organisations such as website operators to
say 'these people have one of my website identities' that is to
say, they're all consumers.

http://www.dictionary.com/browse/identity

This can be further clarified by looking at the different
meanings provided to the same word via a thesaurus:
http://www.thesaurus.com/browse/identity

I thereafter looked for a way in which a statement of exactness
could be made via RDF; but couldn't find an appropriate RDF
dictionary resource.

SOLUTION
Build an online dictionary and thesaurus that is
machine-readable.  It makes sense that this may best be done with
wiki technology.

FEATURES
- The project would firstly focus on the lexicography of the
english language and related dialects. This is expected to
include works in adding latin predicates.
- The project would produce a comprehensive thesaurus, including
unique identifiers for different uses of the same term
(supporting a comprehension of the differentiation in the use of
that term).
- The project would produce a platform that provided RDF output
in a number of serialisations.
- Would provide the means for people to add / edit content on the
site.

PRODUCTION METHOD
It is hoped the site can be rapidly populated using scripts to
ingest existing information from freely available sources; and to
populate the system with information in an RDF compliant format;
that may be altered, edited, updated in a ‘wiki’ like fashion.

USES
For the communication of specific concepts in a manner that may
be further clarified by both human and machine observers; as to
ensure parties are communicating and/or developing works upon a
basis of common understanding of the meaning provided to the
language used.

I had concerns that the WikiData site seemed to be better
orientated towards the concept of schema.org/thing
  rather than a 'language' or other form
of predicate. Please let me know your thoughts? Perhaps i've
missed something entirely and this exists already?  Perhaps
people have been thinking about it elsewhere?  perhaps barriers
exist, that i'm not aware of...

WordNet RDF supports content negotiation:

[Wikidata] RDF Dictionary / Thesaurus

Hi,
