Georgi, Ah...that makes sense! I did a query to check for other articles with the same issue, and it turned up quite a list -- probably too many to make the manual change, but if that can be automated I think that would be a big boost in the usefulness of the ontology (which, I think, is VERY useful and helpful! Thanks!)
Does this fall into the category you described in your blog post about this of asking us to help maintain that ontology? If so I'd be happy to provide any help that I can on this issue, and would only ask for guidance about what, exactly, I could do. Thanks!

A bit of both :) The Wikipedia article Ancient_Greek used the template:Language instead of Template:Infobox_Language. Template:Language is a redirect to Infobox_Language, so the article content displays correctly. We had no automated approach to include template-redirects, and we only included the most common template-redirects manually. And missed the template:Language. I've just simply changed the Wikipedia article Ancient_Greek to use template:Infobox_Language now, so we will be fine with the next extraction (will it be the next dataset release once there is a new Wikipedia dump, or via live-update if we manage to implement that soon :) Best, Georgi PS: We should follow up on the conversation we had in London in March about including your work with ChemBoxes into DBpedia... -- Georgi Kobilarov Freie Universität Berlin www.georgikobilarov.com > -----Original Message----- > From: Patrick Murray-John [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, November 25, 2008 8:53 PM > To: [email protected] >> DBpedia > Subject: [Dbpedia-discussion] Missing Ancient Greek with type Language > > I was exploring around today using the dbpedia-owl types for an app > I'll > be working on soon.
