Hi, I'm not regularly on this forum, so this question might reflect my newbie status, but my question is very straightforward. Basically I was hoping to use the Schema.org rdfs:label values as useful UI labels in my app. For instance, when editing a Person instance in my app, I'd like to use the 'rdfs:label' value for 'http://schema.org/givenName' on my UI's form. But currently (i.e. in https://schema.org/version/latest/schema.ttl) that value is 'givenName', while of course a UI should show 'Given name' (for English). Likewise, for schema:globalLocationNumber the rdfs:label value is 'globalLocationNumber', which again is not directly usable as a UI label for this field. So it seems that perhaps this Turtle representation of Schema.org terms is simply using the localname of the predicate IRI as the rdfs:label. Would it be possible to changes these rdfs:labels values to more UI-friendly strings? Needless to say I'd be happy to provide suggested changes for the fields we use today, but I suspect it might *not* be an easy thing to do if those label values are simply auto-generated from the predicate's localname... (As a follow on, we'd also like to provide a PR for translations of these rdfs:label values for Schema.org terms we use in our apps, i.e. just into a couple of common languages like Spanish, French, etc). Cheers, Pat.
