Wikipedia has this: 
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Elvis_Presley&action=edit

{{Infobox person
| occupation   = Singer, actor
| module = {{Infobox military person
| module2 = {{Infobox musical artist
  | instrument   = Vocals, guitar, piano
   | background   = solo_singer
   | genre        = {{flat list|
*[[Rock and roll]]
*[[Pop music|pop]]
  ...

You can find the newest extraction here:

Unfortunately DBpedia processes only the first two infboxes (Person and 
Military person) but not Musical artist.
It even skips the instrument, background and genre fields from the third 
infobox (Musical artist).
Gerard Kuys has remarked that DBpedia picks only one leaf class "to avoid 
contradictions".
I can understand that various infoboxes scattered throughout the article could 
contribute non-sensical classes, 
especially if they have non-sense mappings as described here: 
http://vladimiralexiev.github.io/pres/20150209-dbpedia/dbpedia-problems-long.html#sec-1-3
 

However:
- The above two "modules" are not randomly scattered, they are embedded in the 
main infobox template
- How is "contradiction" defined"? Definitely the subclasses of Person are 
*not* disjoint, there are numerous examples.

I posted issue https://github.com/dbpedia/extraction-framework/issues/341 

Also: it is not currently possible to examine one field (like "occupation" 
above) and emit two classes: see here
