Hi Hugh,
which version of OpenRefine, and the Freebase extension are you using?
I'm not totally sure, but I think few months ago they've change
something in the API.
Anyway, for such concrete questions of a tool, I think it is much better
to directly ask on its discussion list, in this case:
http://groups.google.com/d/forum/openrefine
BTW, in verson 0.7.0 of the RDF Refine extension Stanbol-based
reconciliation support has been added; so I'd recommend you to give it a
try too.
Cheers,

Unfortunately I’ve not been a regular user, so it is probably my stupidity.
Basically, I go through the Reconcile process using the Freebase Reconcile
service, but it doesn’t find anything to reconcile, even though I have fixed it
so that there is an entry that has exactly the same text as the Freebase entry
title.
It just shows as if there are no positive results.
I try clicking on the search for match after that, but it never comes back,
which makes me wonder.

Hugh, I wonder if you could be more specific regarding the troubles
you had with OpenRefine?
One of our students also had trouble, and I'm wondering if it might be
the same problem.
Like you, reconciliation with Refine has worked for me in the past but
I haven't tried the same process using OpenRefine...

Hi.
I’m not sure where to ask, so I’ll try my friends here.
I was having a go at OpenRefine yesterday, and I can’t get it to reconcile, try
as I might - I have even watched the videos again.
I’m doing what I remember, but it is a while ago.
Are there others currently using it successfully?
Or is it possibly a Mavericks (OSX) upgrade thing, which I did recently.
Cheers
