Hi Leigh, Your description of the pattern is clear and accurate, I think. I only have one comment. > For example the publisher of a SKOS vocabulary may publish transitive > relations between SKOS concepts, but opt not to include additional > properties (e.g. that every skos:prefLabel is also an rdfs:label) I thought rdfs:label was the "official" way to publish a label for a resource. Just checked: neither Tabulator 0.8.7 nor Sindice's Web Data Inspector[1] interpret skos:prefLabel on its own as a label for the resource. Since almost any Linked Data client can have some use for a label, I think this is one of the prime candidates for explicit materialization. I also think this could be added to the section[2] where you advocate the use of skos:prefLabel--i.e. use it to indicate the preferred label to those clients that understand it, but don't forget to materialize rdfs:label for those that don't.
