This is correct. The infobox definition is *not* taken into consideration

 Eg: In the statistics of (es) Ficha_de_futbolista we can find the property

I am also confused here. Pablo is correct on the distinction (ontology -
property).
If this is not the case, you should map them both to the same DBpedia
ontology property. If the infobox has both of them defined then you will
get 2 triples, otherwise you will get only one. At least you should :-)

You could take a look at [1]. I updated it recently.


We could also create an I18n FAQ page for similar questions. Maybe the
Spanish guys can gather all their questions in an page (i.e. [2]) and we
could help them write the answers :-)
