Scott, That would be a really nice feature. I wouldn't necessarily stop doing the OWL-DL check, but this would be another good tool for validation.
I wasn't aware of the "Add all unreferenced resources" feature; thanks for the pointer.

Composer has a way to find all unreferenced resources ("Add all unreferenced resources" to basket). A "find untyped resources" would be a way to look at any (non-literal) resource missing a type statement - or that the object of the type statement is missing (in the closed world). Putting it in the basket does no harm and allows one to review the contents for possible errors. It wouldn't be 100% accurate, but perhaps more so than using OWL-DL vs. OWL-Full. -- Scott > - With OWL-DL ontology/data, as our ontology changes, and > affects the pre-existing data, OWL-Full data usually indicates some > inconsistences--sometimes I have outdated references to > classes/properties that no longer exist, for example. > > This is an interesting point.
