Hello all, At the DBpedia Day in Leipzig we talked a little about an ontology mapping that is more fine-grained (and accurate) than the categories on Wikipedia. For example "The Diamond Age has genre Science Fiction", "The Diamond Age has 455 pages" and "The Diamond Age has shipping weight 90 grams" are really about subjects of different types (an abstract work, an edition, and a physical thing). But they are all expressed on a single item in Wikipedia which can't have all these different types.
My question: Has there been work to map WIkidata qualified statements? For example, Spain is a country where part of the country is in the Canary Islands. https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q29 . So there are statements for "located in time zone" with the qualifier "applies to part Canary Islands". located in time zone UTC ±00:00 applies to part Canary Islands valid in period standard time UTC +01:00 applies to part Canary Islands valid in period daylight saving time Adding this qualifier effectively creates an anonymous resource "the Canary Islands part of Spain". The type of this resource and domain of the property "located in time zone" is not "country" but "region". (And the extra qualifier "valid in period standard time" actually creates a more refined anonymous resource.) Hopefully you can see the idea. If DBpedia mapping can work with Wikidata qualified statements, maybe the same process can be used to create the more refined resources needed for "The Diamond age abstract work", "The Diamond Age edition" and "The Diamond Age physical thing". Then the properties like "number of pages" can have a more refined domain and apply to the correct refined subject.
