Wikispooks talk:Semantic Objects

Other Possible Objects

• Ideology
• Concept (e.g Corruption)
• Law (e.g National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012)

Group Types

• Company
• Nation State

Exactly how to define sub-objects is an open question as yet.

Agreed your last sentence :-)). I guess there's little option but to grow the 'property tree' like categories - but with the benefit of hindsight and thus a tad more thought.

The comparison with the category tree is a good one. I take occasional swipes at that, trim off a branch here and there when it has been replaced by SMW markup. Robin (talk) 16:13, 7 January 2014 (GMT)

I also agree that list with people and events at the top of the priority order. Need to be clear about books too. We currently have maybe 100 full books (Category:EBooks) plus assorted book reviews, extracts and synopses. We probably need 'Sysnopsis' as another sub-property of 'Document' too. Re latest email exchange with Joel van der Reijden, I can see me doing lots of those. --Peter P (talk) 07:19, 7 January 2014 (GMT)

I reckon descriptions are the biggest shortfall at the moment. Well, also some important pages to connect the documents, but that cache is where most of the information is, a good wodge of source material. If you've read the document then making a good description can be very easy, so I recommend you work on that - synopses also good as and when, but I suggest descriptions first, now that there are all those empty boxes in the SMWDocs tables.

Approach to defining objects

I'm just eyeballing looking for how this content can easily be represented semantically. I expect there'll be about 8-10 top level objects. Robin (talk) 12:53, 12 January 2014 (GMT)
