Re: New Web Annotation motivation for (data quality) assessment?

Dear all,

Thanks for the feedback on this.

I will forward the suggestions for motivation vs subclassing.

About the introduction of new motivation(s) in WA to support our case: I think Rob's solution is workable on our side.
Is it possible to know when the WA group would make a decision about it?
I reckon that if DQV keeps dqv:qualityAssessment and the only change we have to make is to add a skos:broader statement between it and a new 'assessment' motivation in the WA namespace, this can be done very easily. But it would make our life easier if we can have an idea of when the motivation would be available for us to link to.

Cheers,

Antoine

I agree with Antoine that there aren't any that would satisfy as broader motivations at the moment.  Perhaps we could replace reviewing with assessing, then a reviewing could be recreated as narrower.

With the important nuance is that if you don't want to do it (and I understand the reasons you write) we would still need a more general 'assessment' motivation, so we can attach the motivation in the DQV namespace to something in the WA namespace using skos:broader, as it would fit for a good extension of the WA motivations.

It is of course a genuine question whether this motivation can be attached to any of "our" motivations. If the answer is no, then we can either get into a discussion on what type of new motivation we should define for that purpose, or simply drop the skos:broader in that case (hence a SHOULD not a MUST…). But the initiative should still come from the DQV side, in  my view.

When trying to find a skos:broader for our motivation dqv:qualityAssessment, I was actually quite surprised not to find anything like this in WA. This is not a common annotation use case? In fact the definition of the existing oa:moderating Moderation [1] has a bit of this, but the label is really much more specific than what would expect for a general assessment.
