All,
With support from Jeff and no objections, I have committed the edits [1] for a
paragraph that now reads:
'''Linked Data'''. "Linked Data" refers to data published in accordance
with [http://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/LinkedData.html principles] designed
to facilitate linkages among datasets, element sets, and value
vocabularies. Linked Data uses
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniform_Resource_Identifier Uniform Resource
Identifiers (URIs)] as globally unique identifiers for any kind of resource
-- analogously to how identifiers are used for authority control in
traditional librarianship. In Linked Data, URIs may be
[http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3987 Internationalized Resource Identifiers
(IRIs)] -- [http://www.w3.org/International/articles/idn-and-iri/ Web
addresses] that use the extended set of natural-language scripts supported
by [http://unicode.org Unicode]. Linked Data is expressed using standards
such as the [http://www.w3.org/RDF/ Resource Description Framework (RDF)],
which specifies relationships between things -- relationships that can be
used for navigating between, or integrating, information from multiple
sources.
Going once, going twice...?
