I've added "services" to the "separate class" Holdings example http://www.w3.org/community/schemabibex/wiki/Holdings These could be changed to actions. So far I have: place hold add to list get more info explore I think that others would be check out download These services, however, are only text in the model on that page, with the service or action being provided by the URI the library system uses. I put a link to the Google rich snippet tool using the code on that page. It seems to me that we have a trade-off between precision (action) and flexibility (service as text). A certain amount undoubtedly depends on how systems handle this kind of thing. My code is based on a III system holdings display. It would be instructive to look at other system displays (under the hood) to see how they handle this. I am assuming that our proposals should mark up existing displays and now require changes beyond adding the microdata markup. Is that a valid assumption? kc On 8/7/13 7:15 AM, Wallis,Richard wrote: > Actions (at least past actions) noes in Schema. > > We should probably propose a LentAction. > > ~Richard > > Begin forwarded message: > >> *Resent-From: *<public-vocabs@w3.org <mailto:public-vocabs@w3.org>> >> *From: *Dan Brickley <danbri@google.com <mailto:danbri@google.com>> >> *Subject: **Re: Schema.org <http://Schema.org> Actions - an update and >> call for review* >> *Date: *7 August 2013 12:52:16 BST >> *To: *W3C Web Schemas Task Force <public-vocabs@w3.org >> <mailto:public-vocabs@w3.org>> >> *Cc: *Ian Niles <ianiles@microsoft.com >> <mailto:ianiles@microsoft.com>>, Sam Goto <goto@google.com >> <mailto:goto@google.com>>, "Alexander Shubin" <ajax@yandex-team.ru >> <mailto:ajax@yandex-team.ru>> >> >> Thanks everyone for the discussion and contributions - we made a few >> improvements and have just published the initial version of this work >> at schema.org <http://schema.org>: >> >> * http://schema.org/Action >> * http://schema.org/docs/full.html >> * Machine readable version is included in >> http://schema.org/docs/schema_org_rdfa.html (plus a little RDFa/RDFS >> in each per-term page). >> >> As mentioned at the start of this thread >> (http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-vocabs/2013Jul/0090.html) >> the plan is to move on from past-tense Actions to address the other >> scenarios explored in earlier drafts, i.e. the description of >> potential future actions, and mechanisms for handling them.
