Implement vocabulary metadata best practices from Linked Open Vocabularies #147

Open dbs opened 5 years ago

dbs commented 5 years ago

The Linked Open Vocabularies project outlines a set of vocabulary metadata best practices that are useful for understanding properties of a vocabulary, like:

This should all be able to be generated automatically as part of each release, and would go a long way towards helping Linked Open Vocabularies and other tools understand these fundamental parts of a vocabulary.

There are also tools which generate human-readable documentation from the vocabulary metadata, which may in turn help avoid issues like #97, #140, and #148.

The metadata for vocabularies proposed in LOV has been extended in https://w3id.org/widoco/bestPractices. Maybe you are interested in having a look at it as well.
