Talk:Call for clarity

Comments by MovGP0
What is  a  good  use  case  for  semantic  wikis? How can we as a community show the benefit of semantic wikis? An idea that came into my mind  today, was that of "Call for Papers". I get so many emails with call for papers, really a lot of work to read them all. Then, when I have an idea I want to publish, it's a horrible task to find the right conference for that.

 * The question was different: not what feature should we use, but what application domain should be the topic of a nice demo wiki. Think about it, and you will see that all kinds of domains have all kinds of problems when you want to use them with semantic wikis (starting from simple borringness, over frequent occurance of ternary relations, to the requirement of having advance reasoning). --Markus Krötzsch 19:18, 16 May 2006 (CEST)

Ideally, i could just query a semantic wiki for "all conferences on semantic  wikis  in  the  USA  with  a  deadline  between  june  and september". That would just rock!

So, what do we need to annotate conferences and workshops?
 * name,
 * paper submission deadline,
 * topics ...?


 * Annotate what you want. As a gerneral rule it can't be to much (except its nonsense). If you want to look for a more general Guideline for Papers see ABCDEF. -- MovGP0 17:36, 16 May 2006 (CEST)


 * "Annotate what you want" is not a sufficient guide for making new annotations. You need to define a suitable set of relations and attributes to be used -- otherwise you end up with something like the current wiki.ontoworld.org, where most relations occur exactly *once* so that they are absolutely useless for searching. --Markus Krötzsch 19:18, 16 May 2006 (CEST)


 * "something like the current wiki.ontoworld.org, where most relations occur exactly *once* so that they are absolutely useless" (slightly off-topic) this is why reusing vocabulary from preexisting ontologies such as foaf or skos might turin in handy. Now, to get back on track, location is obviously missing (but was in the proposed example". --OlivierDameron 22:33, 16 May 2006 (CEST)

What do  you  think?


 * You hit the Spacebar to often. ;-) -- MovGP0 17:36, 16 May 2006 (CEST)

I think the Call for Papers is a good idea for an application domain but also I think samples from several different domains can explore breadth as well as depth. Different domains need different annotations so areas like math, physics, chemistry even economics and politics should be explored to see what unique structures are required. -- USoy
