Wow! These are great @lgalescu ! Thank you for the effort!
@zupon, @BeckySharp: can you please review and incorporate these changes?
@zupon, @BeckySharp: we can discuss the more difficult ones at the WM project meeting.
I can get started on the easier ones now, and we can definitely discuss the hard cases at the WM project meeting.
Many of the simpler changes are covered by #99, but there are some specific "hard" cases we wanted to discuss before changing so we don't inadvertently mess something up for someone.
entity/
and/or time/
inside the concept/
category. I'm told that BBN might treat these differently, so there may be reason to keep them separate. @chanys does that sound correct?infrastructure/transportation_infrastructure/road_infrastructure/
. Given the whole ontology path, there's a lot of extra infrastructure
present. If we only see the intermediate node or leaf node (e.g. just transportation
or just roads
, per the suggestions), do we lose important information?crime
and tension
don't really fit in the crisis_or_disaster
domain. Should we create a new domain like social
and move them there, or rename crisis_and_disaster
to be more inclusive of things like crime and tension?Some smaller cases to decide on:
meteorology
domain node with climate
, delete that intermediate node, or leave it as-is?malnutrition
from nutrition
domain to disease
domain?entity/animal
node? Is it different enough from concept/agricultural/livestock
?entity/artifact
, or delete and rely on existing goods
node?storage
domain, are nodes like stockpile_goods
and household_food_storage
useful?On Q1: It is fine to move entity
and time
under concept
. We don't need them under their own distinct branch. We just need them to be represented somewhere in the ontology, so that we can represent the Event-participants and Event-time.
On Q2:
