In the the course of the conversion of our economics thesaurus to SKOS,
I found a construct which seems to require a custom extension: Some
documentation notes offer "use that instead of this" hints - e.g., a
note for the descriptor "Restrictive business practices" says "For
restrictions on market entry USE Market entry".
To preserve the semantic of this note, I think about introducing a new
type of note:
stw:useInsteadNote rdfs:subPropertyOf skos:note
which could be used as follows:
<restrictive business practices> stw:useInsteadNote
[ rdf:value "For restrictions on market entry"@en;
rdfs:seeAlso <market entry> ] .
By using a custom type of note, it can get special treatment, generation
of links etc., in the further conversion to XHTML/RDFa.
Do you have some experience with this or a similar pattern? Are there
any pitfalls I should be aware of?
Kind regards,
