Hi all,

I've been working on a small side project using DBPedia, and found that there 
are too many broken image links in DBPedia. e.g.

http://dbpedia.org/resource/Thank_You_%28Jamelia_album%29       
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thank_You_%28Jamelia_album%29      
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/c0/Jamelia_-_Thank_You_%28Version_1%29.jpg
http://dbpedia.org/resource/Siege_of_Tuyen_Quang        
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_Tuyen_Quang       
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/bc/Defense_of_Tuyen_Quan_bf_1923.jpg
http://dbpedia.org/resource/Yolo_County_Arts_Council    
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yolo_County_Arts_Council   
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a3/Ycac.png

and many more. And there are some that are incorrect (I assume that this is due 
to errors in the extraction process) e.g.
http://dbpedia.org/page/Grand_Duchy_of_Tuscany  - foaf:depiction -> 
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/c3/Flag_of_France.svg

Perhaps checking for broken links now and then wouldn't be such a bad thing. 
Just an idea.

Also a lot of properties that seam to be duplicate properties for things: 
http://dbpedia.org/property/birthPlace and 
http://dbpedia.org/property/birthplace. Visor (http://visor.psi.enakting.org/) 
a tool I created is very good at surfacing such errors.

Sorry if I'm pointing out things that are already known problems but I'm new to 
this list so I thought I share my experience from a hacker/user perspective.

Best,
--Igor
