Hi all!

I'm building a wiki that contains a couple of data in table form.  (See example 
below.)  While it is very convenient to create one page for one table, I am 
somewhat at a loss how to add semantic annotations to this kind of data.

At the same time, I would like to add semantics to my wiki so that the system 
can answer non-trivial user questions such as:

1) Which country in Asia had the highest (or lowest) rice production in the 
year 1963?

2) What is the total rice production of China in the four year period from  
1963 to 1966?

3) In 1967, Cambodia's rice production comprise what percent or fraction of the 
total rice production in the world?

4) Through 1961-1970, which countries experienced an increase (decrease) in 
rice production?  

I'm sure people can think of more complicated queries than the ones I listed 
above.  Any ideas on how to annotate (or model) such wiki pages?

Regards,

Serge
