Is http://www.w3.org/2002/07/owl#sameAs only used for ZDB links? Seems like a very specific label.

acka47 commented 10 years ago

I am quite sure, we only use it to link to ZDB as the DBpedia link (the sole other case we might use owl:sameAs for) is indicated with rdfs:seeAlso, see e.g. http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-1/about. We may wait, though, until @dr0i confirms this.

fsteeg commented 10 years ago

Hm, but even if this was true, is it good practice to use such a specific label for a general property?

acka47 commented 10 years ago

I don't see the problem as the labels are for people who don't really care about the RDF properties used. Also, we already do this, see the example mentioned above where the very general property rdfs:seeAlso is labeled 'DBpedia'. (We might think about using umbel:isLike instead of rdfs:seeAlso which nonetheless wouldn't be much more specific.) The right place to specify a more restrictive use of a general property in an application would be an application profile. ;-)

Confirmed - all owl:sameAs link to zdb.
