RE: linking a symbol with a dataset

I would think Mick Jagger's tongue is definetely part of the Rolling Stones :).

But seriously...
When referring to being part of a dataset It feels to me like you're saying "Rolling Stones partOf Wikipedia:British_Rock_Lemma"
Or, alternatively: head structure partOf body; head structure partOf SNOMED CT.

This is mixing up instance properties and class properties.

Or am I missing something?

Thanks for allowing me to lurk on many great and instructive conversations!

Ronald

Neither the triples nor their components are *members* of the dataset. They might be in some sense 'part of' or 'included in' the dataset, but they are not members of the actual dataset, which is defined normatively to be a set of named RDF graphs.

Two different senses of "part", right? Unless one is a mereologist, of course, who would say that the answer was clearly yes.
