Hi - I'm wondering if this is the right place to ask about what looks like a contradiction in smw, or maybe I'm not understanding the whole picture yet... It seems that a [[category]] on a page is equivalent to an rdf:type, but if it's on a category: page, then it happens to be interpreted as an owl:subClassOf. So I'm wondering if category: pages can equally have owl:Class semantics, especially the specification of multiple filters (aka Restrictions) as superclasses?
Personally I'd rather see [[category]] on category pages be consistently interpreted as <rdf:type> for all pages in a semwiki. Because mechanisms in place can equate owl: with the property: namespace, standard properties can be used to describe a category as a semantic object. I'd go a little farther. I've noticed that categories are very often used to associate instances with lists; properties from the skos namespace might be good to hold these relations. Finally, dc: namespace properties could be a very minimal semantic skin for certain magic wiki words relevant to a page. There are surely other namespaces to look at, but generally it might be a good idea if smw installs a package of standard namespaces to reflect its own architecture, and to treat [[category]] consistently.
