I've noticed a few new files show up in dbpedia 3.5.  These include 
the "page number",  "revision number" and "PND" tables?  What exactly 
are these?

    I know that freebase keys things to wikipedia by a "page number" 
that seems to be something internal to the mediawiki system...  Is that 
what the page number is here?

    BTW,  the freebase mappings look GOOD,  much much better than what's 
been in previous dbpedias...  In particular,  these are real NT files 
that point to real linked data URLs.  I'll have a more definite view 
once my scripts finish overnight,  but it looks like the freebase 
mappings pretty much match what can be derived from the "Simple Topic 
Dump" that FB releases,  and for all I know,  that's where they come from.

    If the mappings look OK I might be soon releasing an NT file that 
specifies rdf:type between dbpedia resources and Fbase types.  (If you 
had an rdf dump of Freebase,  this would be equivalent to what you'd get 
with the owl:sameas statements declared in the freebase mappings.)

    I'm also thinking about improved rdf:type statements to the dbpedia 
ontology as well...  Definitely many more Person(s) can be found in 
fbase...  A really good answer to "City",  "Town",  etc. might need to 
wait until I've got a certain feedback loop established.
