I think we have to fix the link of vocab.org <http://vocab.org/> in the document. Not sure to understand why you say it’s dead.

+1 to fold this subsection in BP 14 and maybe add a reference from this article of D’Aquin & Natacha Noy [1] (*)

I am not sure to understand your point here. You mean GeoNames ontology or the link provided in BP can be confusing? Also, here http://lov.okfn.org/dataset/lov/vocabs/gn <http://lov.okfn.org/dataset/lov/vocabs/gn> you can see that there are almost 12 vocabularies that reuse term from GeoNames vocabulary [2].

In the case we remove GeoNames, we can cite the W3C Geo vocabulary [3] or location vocabulary [4] for spatial domain.

(*) I would also suggested for reusing vocabularies, this editorial paper at SWJ on “Five stars of Linked Data Vocabulary Use” http://www.semantic-web-journal.net/system/files/swj653.pdf <http://www.semantic-web-journal.net/system/files/swj653.pdf>. But maybe it’s more focus on LD communities!?
