			Hi Gerard,

			No it's not a (bad) joke, these properties are used in the French Wikipedia infoboxes, one for pornographic actors and the other for models.

			Hi Julien,

			Could you please explain what you had in mind when adding the properties 'shoeSize' and 'penisLength'? Do they serve a particular goal or were they just a (bad) joke?

			Regards,

			Gerard

			Hi Julien,

			I also deleted three classes you created (JapanPrefecture, FrenchIntercommunality & AmericanState)
			We should get the place from other prorties like "country" etc not the class itself

			Best,

GerardKuys: Asked not to add subclasses to the DBpedia ontology for each geographical region

Asked not to add subclasses to the DBpedia ontology for each geographical region

New page

Hi Jplu,

Recently, I noticed tht you have added to the DBpedia ontology a set of classes, a set of which each new class denotes nothing else than just a particular geographical region of the same type of class. I have in mind the subclasses you defined for superclasses Settlement and AdministrativeRegion, designating a Settlement in such and such country: AlgerianSettlement etc.

In my honest opinion, there really is no need to proliferate subclasses in this way. If you want to see individuals of the Settlement class for a particular country, there is the 'country' property you can use as a selection criteria. If it is because of any mapping you might want to make, you can add a constant mapping to your mapped template, saying that for this template the 'country' property should always point to Algeria, for instance.

If there would be a tendency for the DBpedia ontology to expand subclasses for any possible combination of criteria, I fear that to a great extent this would harm the usefulness of the ontology. If there is any particular kind of problem you might want to solve by adding subclasses in this way, I would be happy to think with you how this problem could be solved in another way.

With kind regards,
