Re: Schema.org and nested items

Hi,

Another question about ItemPage / ProfilePage and all the possible 
children of a WebPage.


Let's say I have a page about a localBusiness.

e.g : 
http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.wiktik.com%2Fentreprise%2Fwiktik-2&view=

It's currently defined with a main "itempage", about a "localBusiness"

If I have references to this url on other pages on my site, should I use :

<div itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="http://schema.org/ItemPage">
   <a itemprop="url" 
href="http://www.wiktik.com/entreprise/wiktik-2">Wiktik</a>
</div>

or

<div itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="http://schema.org/localBusiness">
   <a itemprop="url" 
href="http://www.wiktik.com/entreprise/wiktik-2">Wiktik</a>
</div>


Please help us properly implement all this schema.org stuff ! :)


Thanks a lot,
   Jocelyn Fournier
