Hi, While working on the Person type for the Drupal schema.org module, I couldn't find a property for the biography of a person. http://schema.org/Person does not list any, and 'description' does not really fit the bill: biographies are usually longer than one would expect in 'description'. Typically biographies are composed of a few paragraphs with basic HTML. A couple of examples: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001035/bio http://openspring.net/scor I did a bit of research <http://labs.mondeca.com/dataset/lov/index.html>and found that http://vocab.org/bio/0.1/.html#biography is close to what we want: An extended description or account of someone's life. > Usage: It is expected that the value of this property is either a literal > formatted with HTML markup or a pointer to an HTML document. Would you consider adding 'biography' as a property for http://schema.org/Person? cheers, Steph.
