Thank you Thad, I will try that.
... which actually lead me to a more general question: I understand that
schema.org functions more like a standardization body while Freebase
schemas are edited by the community more in a Wikipedia fashion. This
results in schema.org being cleaner, having less redundancy, and usually
there is only one way to model one thing. Now if I project myself in a
close future I can see that my radio station will publish its info on
its own website using schema.org. That data will be harvested by
crawlers and then get back to the public, maybe automatically written to
Freebase or Wikidata. If this scenario makes sense schema.org and
Freebase schemas will slowly converge, or said differently schema.org
will evolve to be able cover all the domains in Freebase. Is it a
plausible scenario ?
