== How to map a Wikipedia table ==
 
* Find important and unique keywords in the table header.
* Create a wiki page in this wiki in the Mapping namespace, using the ''Table'' prefix. You can define more than one table mapping on one wiki page. The wiki page name doesn't have to refer to any of the table keywords. Bundling table mappings depending on the table topic could be useful.
* Decide on the ontology class you would like to map the table to.
* Write a [[Template:TableMapping]] to map the Wikipedia table rows to an ontology class and save it to the created wiki page in the Mapping namespace.
