Wiki Ontology 1.0

Best Practice:Wiki Ontology 1.0 Source: http://www.bestpracticeswiki.net			A Best Practice Wiki Ontology 1.0 Context audiences: Job:Ontologist, Job:Database Designer, Job:Web Manager, Role:Expert User activities: Industry:Web Design features: locations: Web:Internet Catalog source: tags: status: notes: identifiers: version: 25 Mar 2013 author: John McClure contributors: editor: publisher: BestPractices rights: .
[edit] This document specifies Practices underlying the ontology developed for the semantic wiki supporting Best Practices Wiki. The practices below do not necessarily apply to ontologies fielded in technical environments other than semantic wikis. Principal objectives of the ontology are conventions to name classes & properties attached to wiki pages and page subobjects a Topic Map-syntax widget for direct entry of page subobjects & properties a structured query syntax easier for users to learn and use an "annotation desktop" for semantic scientific & socio-economic ontologies This material is primarily directed at web developers associated with Best Practices Wiki and at any others who use the Wiki Topic Maps Ontology. Readers of this document are expected to be familiar with Semantic MediaWiki and its suites of software extensions. in bundle: Wiki Documentationnarrower than: Ontologiesbroader than:
General "Rules of Thumb" Advice (Stated)[ABSTRACT CLASSES] Establish as base abstract classes: Story,What, When, Where, Who, Which, Why, How and How much. (Debated)[ATTRIBUTE NAMESPACE] Rename the SMW Property namespace to Attribute in order to preserve "property" as a prime legal/economic term for a "type of topic". (Discussing)[TEXT PROPERTIES] Identify the names of all text properties by (1) a "period" followed by (2) a lower case letter. The property name may have a suffix to indicate language or facets of the property's value. (Agreed)[PROPERTY FACETS] Identify the names of facets by (1) a "period" followed by (2) a lower case letter. Include facets for language, numeric precision, variance and statistical measures. (Tabled)[OBJECT PROPERTIES] Identify the names of all object properties by a Capital Letter and do not follow any camel-casing convention. (Voting)[NUMERIC PROPERTIES] Support RDF-style numeric property names, e.g., "1" and "2", when used as suffixes to either a text or an object property name. (Withdrawn)[PROPERTY NAMES] Disallow from property names all special characters other than en-dash and hash characters. (Discussing)[ISO PROPERTIES] Support all International Standards Organization (ISO) codes for currencies & languages as property names for monetary and text/string data. (Presumed)[SI PROPERTIES] Support all Systeme Internationale (SI) abbreviations for types of numeric quantities as property names. (Finalized)[WIKI NAMESPACES] Require a wiki page's namespaces to be the primary mechanism for communicating the type of topic that the page represents. Allow any namespace to contain any of three primary SKOS metatypes: (a) concept (b) collection (c) schema/bundle. (Constructing)[WIKI PAGENAMES] Assume that the name of a page in a wiki is the topic of the page, and a topic of the wiki. (Re-stated)[WIKI REDIRECTS] Consider REDIRECTs to be alternate names, or aliases, in the Topic Map sense. (Questioned)[DUBLIN CORE] Adopt & tightly integrate all Dublin Core properties for general provenance purposes. (Re-questioned)[XML SCHEMA] Support all XML Schema datatypes as property names for low-level data transmissions or queries. (Re-proposed)[RDF] Support all RDF properties and classes for RDF-level data transmissions and RDF-level queries. (Re-agreed)[RDF SCHEMA] Support all RDF Schema properties and classes for data exchanges and queries.
