Setting aside the issue of disambiguation, dbpedia provides a linked data interface to the content of wikipedia. Connecting that to your XML is just a question of the document model you use. If you want to know whether endpoint a is the same as endpoint b in the linked data world you can try

What are some of the ways to best insert Linked Data endpoints into an XML file? I have been playing lately with named-entity recognition/extraction technology. [1] Feed a text file, such as a novel, into the recognition program. Get back a rudimentary XML file where things like names, places,

Just to clarify, are you picturing some sort of feedback loop? I'm just trying to get a better picture of the process (sounds like an interesting project). In other words, do you have something like: 1) take in a full-text document (like, say, a novel?) 2) Run it through NER, pull out
