Hi I recently fixed both demos written by me and featured on the Use Cases<http://wiki.dbpedia.org/UseCases>page. These had broken due to vocab changes in dbpedia and a problem with my server as discussed in my blog <http://kitwallace.posterous.com/tag/dbpedia>
Checking again today, they are broken again: Football <http://www.cems.uwe.ac.uk/xmlwiki/RDF/clubIndex.xq> - for a footballer, the property dbpprop:currentclub was reasonably well populated to reflect the current players in a team. Now that property is present for only a few players, too few to be be useful. Some teams now have dbpprop:name referencing a player which is wrong. One problem here is that the relationship between a player and a team is not a resource. This leads to multiple disassociated dbpprop:name, dbpprop:no (position) ,dbpprop:nat and dbpprop:other properties - see http://dbpedia.org/page/Manchester_City_F.C. as an example. If team membership was represented as a resource with these properties, then the data would be meaningful and moreover dates could be added to allow team composition at any time to be constructed. Albums <http://www.cems.uwe.ac.uk/xmlwiki/RDF/groupIndex.xq> - when I wrote this a couple of years ago, thumbnail pointed to a jpg and this demo looked rather nice, especially the Simile timeline. When I last fixed it, the thumbnails had gone and only a local file name for the cover art was available as dbpprop:cover. Now thumbnails are back, but the URI is garbled: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e9/Bob_Seger_-_Like_a_Rock.jpg/200px-Bob_Seger_-_Like_a_Rock.jpg should be http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/e/e9/Bob_Seger_-_Like_a_Rock.jpg Regards Chris
