Hi all,

One year later I am hitting this issue again (see quoted email below
for reference).

Since last time it is now possible to improve the mappings using
http://mappings.dbpedia.org  . However I could not find how SKOS
category information is extracted from there. Maybe the SKOS mapping
logic is hardcoded in the extractor?

To recap, the piece of data I am looking for is the link between a
SKOS topic such as http://dbpedia.org/resource/Category:Arts and the
DBpedia resource that is matching the primary Wikipedia article of the
category, in that case http://dbpedia.org/resource/The_arts .

The Wikipedia makes this information explicitly available by the use
of the template "Cat_main". For instance, the source of
http:/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Arts includes the following
snippet (generally at the beginning):

{{Cat main|The arts}}

It seems to be widely used for any category that has a real world
semantic interpretation (not just for the sake of Wikipedia
housekeeping):

  
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Cat_main&limit=500

So my question is: is it possible to write a mapping for this using
http://mappings.dbpedia.org ? If so which directive should I use and
which target property should I map the relation too?

Best,
