Hello again,
maybe the question, I asked was lost, as the text was TL;DR

I heard that, it is planned to track provenance of facts. e.g. Berlin has 3,337,000 citizens found here: http://www.worldatlas.com/citypops.htm Do you have a place where the use case and the requirements are documented for this? Or is it out of scope? Will it be course grained, i.e. website level ? Or fine grained, i.e. text paragraph level? See e.g. how Berlin is highlighted here:
http://pcai042.informatik.uni-leipzig.de/~swp12-9/vorprojekt/index.php?annotation_request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.worldatlas.com%2Fcitypops.htm%23hash_4_30_7449e732716c8e68842289bf2e6667d5_Berlin%2C%2520Germany%2520-%25203%2C
in this very early prototype.

Could you give me a link were I can read more about any Wikidata plans towards this direction?
Sebastian

Dear all,
(Note: I could not find the document, where your requirements regarding the tracking of facts on the web are written, so I am giving a general introduction to NIF. Please send me a link to the document that specifies your need for tracing facts on the web, thanks)

I would like to point your attention to the URIs used in the NLP Interchange Format (NIF). NIF-URIs are quite easy to use, understand and implement. NIF has a one-triple-per-annotation paradigm. The latest documentation can be found here:
http://svn.aksw.org/papers/2012/WWW_NIF/public/string_ontology.pdf

The basic idea is to use URIs with hash fragment ids to annotate or mark pages on the web: An example is the first occurrence of "Semantic Web" on http://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/LinkedData.html as highlighted here: http://pcai042.informatik.uni-leipzig.de/~swp12-9/vorprojekt/index.php?annotation_request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2FDesignIssues%2FLinkedData.html%23hash_10_12_60f02d3b96c55e137e13494cf9a02d06_Semantic%2520Web

Here is a NIF example for linking a part of the document to the DBpedia entry of the Semantic Web:
<http://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/LinkedData.html#offset_717_729>
      a str:StringInContext ;
      sso:oen <http://dbpedia.org/resource/Semantic_Web> .


We are currently preparing a new draft for the spec 2.0. The old one can be found here:
http://nlp2rdf.org/nif-1-0/

There are several EU projects that intend to use NIF. Furthermore, it is easier for everybody, if we standardize a Web annotation format together.
Please give feedback of your use cases.
All the best,
Sebastian
