I can explain the schema links: they are links for constants used in SPARQL. 
rdf:nil and rdf:type.

RDF Collections are in rdf:nil is in RDF schema and SPARQL has list syntax to 
agree with that and mentions rdf:nil (i.e the rdf collection "()")

Similarly for "a" - rq23 says it stands for rdf:type and links to that URI.

So a RDF schema link should be normative (or remove the links and leave the 
bytes for the URI not in a <a> but that woudl be shame).

We could remove it but leaving the quote as explanation (maybe without a link, 
pref with a link) seems better.
