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. -Thad +ThadGuidry <https://www.google.com/+ThadGuidry> On Sun, Jul 9, 2017 at 12:22 PM Timothy Holborn <timothy.holb...@gmail.com> wrote: > 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.
