Hi Paul, You can just type following in your browser: http://dbpedia.org/resource/Marcos_Escobedo Now, you can see: http://dbpedia.org/resource/Miguel_Hidalgo_y_Costilla against the property: dbpedia-owl:country I am just browsing the existing data on DBPedia, I am not sure whethere that happens due to reasoning or that is the data without reasoning. You mentioned that: "The ontology is best used just as a loose reference guide, not to reason on : )" I have serious doubts on your this statement. Thanks. ________________________________ From: Paul Wilton <paul.wilton@ontoba.com> To: Vishal Sinha <vishal.sinha777@yahoo.com> Cc: David Wood <david@3roundstones.com>; "dbpedia-discussion@lists.sourceforge.net" <dbpedia-discussion@lists.sourceforge.net>; "public-lod@w3.org" <public-lod@w3.org> Sent: Monday, February 11, 2013 7:24 PM Subject: Re: DBPedia: http://dbpedia.org/resource/Marcos_Escobedo Hi Vishalif you are loading the instance data and the dbpedia ontology into a triple store that has RDFS reasoning capability then its because the ontology properties that are typically defined with domains and ranges are misused throughout the dbpedia instance data - which causes instances to be inferred to be the wrong class types. This is prevalent throughout - its a bit of a mess to say the least. The ontology is best used just as a loose reference guide, not to reason on : ) Paul On Mon, Feb 11, 2013 at 12:56 PM, David Wood <david@3roundstones.com> wrote: Because real data is dirty. > > >Regards, >Dave >-- >http://about.me/david_wood > > > > > >On Feb 11, 2013, at 06:01, Vishal Sinha <vishal.sinha777@yahoo.com> wrote: > >Hi, >> >>The following resource in DBPedia: >><http://dbpedia.org/resource/Marcos_Escobedo> is a Person. >> >>which has a country: >><http://dbpedia.org/resource/Miguel_Hidalgo_y_Costilla> , but in fact that is also a Person. >> >>How is this possible? >> >> >> >> >> >Received on Monday, 11 February 2013 14:19:24 UTC
