Hi All,

Just to address what Markus was hinting at with inference rules. Both
positive and negative rules could be stored.  Back in the Freebase days, we
had those and were called "mutex's".  We used them for "type incompatible"
hints to users and stored those "type incompatible" mutex rules in the
knowledge graph. (Freebase being a Type based system along with having
Properties under each Type)

Such as:  ORGANIZATION != SPORT

You actually have all those type incompatible mutexs in the Freebase dumps
handed to you where you could start there.  The biggest one was called "Big
Momma Mutex".
Here is an archived email thread to give further context:

Anyways, the point is that those rules worked well for us in Freebase and I
can see rules also working wonders in various ways in Wikidata as well.
Maybe its just a mutex at each class ? Where multiple statements could hold
rules ?
