Woot! Woot! The lod-cloud.net visualization will be super useful for outreach and communications about our work! Thank you for updating, and looking forward to an update when the visualization is live. 

Cheers, 

Alex

Congrats! That's great!

But I am afraid that we need to do some cleanup of the already existing values. For example the “URI used in RDF”  for GND identifiers was "http://d-nb.info/gnd/$1/about/rdf" that is the URI of the file describing the entity in RDF and not "http://d-nb.info/gnd/$1".
I believe it's a good use case for a feature that would allow to protect statements from good faith mistakes that could completely beak a mapping and all tools that use it.
The query with all the values for this property is: http://tinyurl.com/ydxeurn4
