I combed through the GitHub repository and the database. I found a list which would be feasible to add to NoRaRe: lexicon_semcats-glosses_20110913.xlsx

It includes the glosses for each category. Unfortunately, it does not include the label for a category which would make it more explicit. And I couldn't find what rn stands for:

rn	gloss	semcat	CHAP	CAT
191741	body	1a/1.1	1a	1.1
39240	lower body	1a/1.1	1a	1.1
1287	naked	1a/1.1	1a	1.1
21200	nudity	1a/1.1	1a	1.1
43127	physique	1a/1.1	1a	1.1
121240	carrion	1a/1.1.1	1a	1.1.1
1030	flesh	1a/1.1.1	1a	1.1.1
2355	flesh-meat	1a/1.1.1	1a	1.1.1
148764	livestock	1a/1.1.1	1a	1.1.1
491	meat	1a/1.1.1	1a	1.1.1

@LinguList Should I add this list or prioritize another one from the repository?

Yes, this is a good idea. The RN stands for the record number in the STEDT database, it is like the identifier for a given word. You can search them here.

The URL which this resolves to is https://stedt.berkeley.edu/~stedt-cgi/rootcanal.pl/edit/lexicon?lexicon.rn=

So I would call this rn column "STEDT_ID", and for the metadata, you can code it as we do for babelnet:

      {
        "name": "BABELNET_ID",
        "datatype": "string",
        "propertyUrl": "dc:relation",
        "valueUrl": "http://babelnet.org/synset?word=bn:{BABELNET_ID}"
      }, 

so you write:

      {
        "name": "STEDT_ID",
        "datatype": "string",
        "propertyUrl": "dc:relation",
        "valueUrl": "https://stedt.berkeley.edu/~stedt-cgi/rootcanal.pl/edit/lexicon?lexicon.rn={STEDT_ID}"
      },

Great, thanks! I'll prepare the list accordingly.
