Hi Bernard,
Well, if humans are typed has Queen102313008; it is indeed shocking :)
Some backgrounds of the issue here:
This queen refers to this WordNet word sense:
{02313008} [05] S:
<http://wordnet.princeton.edu/perl/webwn?o2=&o0=1&o7=1&o5=1&o1=1&o6=&o4=&o3=1&s=queen&i=0&h=000000000000#c>
(n) *queen#1* (the only fertile female in a colony of social insects
such as bees and ants and termites; its function is to lay eggs)
That is an insect.
The problem is not with Yago, but potentially with its integration into
DBPedia (I didn't investigated further than by reading your mail).
What one have to take into account when using Yago is that these
concepts (as Queen) come from WordNet, so one concept has, in most of
the cases, more than one word sense. Word senses are tagged with the
WordNet word sense number (0231....).
Take care,
Fred
