Template:Class

From DBpedia Mappings
Jump to navigationJump to search

The {{Class}} template can be used to define ontology classes.

Usage

{{Class
| labels              =
{{label|en|...}}
{{label|..|...}}
| comments            =
{{comment|en|...}}
{{comment|..|...}}
| rdfs:subClassOf     =
| owl:equivalentClass =
| owl:disjointWith    =
| specificProperties  =
}}

Details

  • labels: should be defined to provide a human-readable version of a class name. Use ISO language code 639-1 (e.g. {{label|en|...}}).
  • comments: should be defined to provide a human-readable description of a class. Use ISO language code 639-1 (e.g. {{comment|en|...}}).
  • rdfs:subClassOf: is used to state that all the instances of one class are instances anothers.
  • owl:equivalentClass:
  • owl:disjointWith:
  • specificProperties: refine property units for this class using SpecificProperty template.

For backwards compatibilty, the following format for labels and comments is also possible but deprecated:

{{Class
| rdfs:label@en          =
| rdfs:label@..          =
| rdfs:comment@en        =

Example

The definition of the DBpedia ontology class Artist:

{{Class
| labels          = {{label|en|Artist}}
| comments        = {{comment|en|An artist is a person who creates pieces of art.}}
| rdfs:subClassOf = Person
}}

It will be rendered to this table:

This is the definition of an ontology class.

Show all properties available for this class.

Show class in class hierarchy.
