     Note that much of this kind of information is already harvested 
from Wikipedia by DBpedia and Freebase so most of the issues involved 
have already been hashed out in that context.  In fact,  Wikipedia 
already provides the core of a knowledge base that people use to work 
with this sort of data.

     Schema.org covers a few web-specific topics such as template 
marking and a little bit of SIOC-like differentiation of different types 
of web pages.
