Hello,
Concerning the use of owl:sameAs
<http://www.w3.org/TR/owl-ref/#IndividualIdentity>, it is used in
dbpedia to "link" for instance
http://dbpedia.org/page/Joseph_Hocking to
its equivalent in Freebase, WikiData and Yago. If we refer to your
remark, Markus, this is not an example to follow ?
If the use of owl:sameAs
<http://www.w3.org/TR/owl-ref/#IndividualIdentity> is discouraged, what
is its purpose and in which case could it be used ? Does this means that
OWL lacks a proper way to interlink ressources from different editors ?
By the way, is the notion of "individuals" an OWL concept ?
Alternative ways to interlink data could also be found on :
