Re: [Dbpedia-discussion] [Dbpedia-ontology] Advancing the DBpedia ontology

2015-02-25 Thread Mike Bergman
Hi John, My thoughts are for DBpedia to stay close to the mission of extracting quality data from Wikipedia, and no more. That quality extraction is an essential grease to the linked data ecosystem, and of much major benefit to anyone needful of broadly useful structured data. I think both Wik
