Much as I'd like it to be the case that Wikipedia embraced RDFa and the web of linked data, it seems unlikely at the moment. I'm hoping that Wikidata might ease the Wikimedia community in to trying the very tasty Semantic Web Kool-Aid®. VIAF was a first, initial stab towards richly linking Wikipedia together with other linked data on the web. Hopefully it won't be the last. -- Tom Morris <http://tommorris.org/> _______________________________________________ Wikimedia UK mailing list [email protected] http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l WMUK: http://uk.wikimedia.org
