Hi Peter,
Awesome. Yes. this is the sort of thing i was looking to leverage. I
couldn't find the RDF output for wordnet.
WordNet RDF supports content negotiation:
curl -H "Accept: application/n-triples"
http://wordnet-rdf.princeton.edu/wn31/identity-n
curl -H "Accept: application/rdf+xml"
http://wordnet-rdf.princeton.edu/wn31/identity-n
There is also a download link for the entire data set from
http://wordnet-rdf.princeton.edu to
http://wordnet-rdf.princeton.edu/wn31.nt.gz
Awesome. thanks again...
Cheers,
Peter
FWIW: i find this useful
http://osds.openlinksw.com/
Still v.interested to understand how we might further enhance what
exists in Wiki
style; mind, such a project is too much for me to take-on
alone.
thank you. i'll put the reference to immediate use ;)
Tim.

Hi Timothy,
have you looked at WordNet and its RDF version?
http://wordnet.princeton.edu
http://wordnet-rdf.princeton.edu
Here is your example “identity”:

Cheers,

have well-formed RDF output; as to act as an ontological source (rather
than simply the use of RDF for SEO).

identity can also mean 'sameness'; which can also be useful for
organisations such as website operators to say 'these people have one of my
website identities' that is to say, they're all consumers.

the concept of
schema.org/thing rather than a 'language' or
other form of predicate. Please let me know your thoughts? Perhaps i've
missed something entirely and this exists already? Perhaps people have
been thinking about it elsewhere? perhaps barriers exist, that i'm not
aware of...
