Hi Sarven,
That's great.
I have added your owl:sameAs links to sameAs.org
(I read your Terms of Use, which seemed to a allow it, but if you want I can 
remove them.)
(http://sameas.org/?uri=http://worldbank.270a.info/classification/country/AD)
Really gives a sense of the linkage in the LD cloud on countries.

I think it is worth reminding people of a previous word of warning I raised 
last year.
The country links (and maybe others) are still wrong in dbpedia _ this relates 
to the assertion of the nytimes data.
So people should be aware that if they Follow Your Nose from
http://worldbank.270a.info/classification/country/AD
via your sameAs to
http://dbpedia.org/resource/Andorra
and then follow the sameAs links there, they will end up at
http://data.nytimes.com/6156243861971791401, which is
"La Paz (Bolivia)".
I actually suspect that this means that you can Follow Your Nose to get most 
countries of the world the same, bouncing backwards and forwards between NYT 
and dbpedia, but haven't investigated!*
The dbpedia people know about it, and do intend to fix it, but at the moment 
you can't trust their sameAs links.

Hugh,

If you could provide a list of bad sameAs links, I'll just have them deleted once and for all. As I've stated in the past, the NY Times data shouldn't have been in the main DBpedia graph. Named Graph partitioning doesn't adversely affect Linked Data publishing.

PS, I think this will bounce from the LOD2 list, but if someone wants to 
forward it that's fine.

* Well maybe not, but there are some interesting clusters.
Eg a quick FYN gives

For those still interested in this WBLD stuff, I've made a lot of updates. 
Boring stuff aside, I've added three newly released financial datasets, dumps 
for all the data, and a spanking new logo!

 From here on end, I'll announce updates on the website, or elsewhere on the 
InterWebs. You can also ping me.

And now, I will go catch several big zeds followed with several small zeds.
