Looks like a good start. A few comments:

| Essentially all knowledge is gathered as assertions of the form:
|
|     URI property value

Would be nice to have a bit of punctuation in there to separate out the
components. Perhaps something like:

    URI → property → value

And then for other N-Triples-like blocks in the text, employ the same
mechanism to demonstrate the triple.

Might be more clear as "Unfortunately, this says that T. S. Eliot
created the Wikipedia page, which is patently not true."

| <a about"[_:W3C]" rel="foaf:homepage"

Missing an equals sign.

Under the "Packaging a group of relations" heading, the highlighted
@typeof doesn't actually do any packaging - the existing @about already
packages the properties together.

You may wish to include a brief introduction to a few commonly used
vocabs - e.g. FOAF, DC, iCal. Explain each one's scope and purpose and
about 6 to 10 of the most important classes and properties, and give a
little example of using them, and finally an example of using all three
together to describe, say, a book which has been written by a person,
which has a primary topic that is an event.
