Tunnel: Length should be a number with units

2007-10-16T16:39:25.0000Z

As a follow-on, using "integer range" for width means that units cannot be associated with the values. I'd recommend using two properties, "minimum width" and "maximum width", with expected types of floating point number (rather than integer), so we can say whether the value should be in feet, meters, or whatever.

Currently, the length property expects Unit of length, not a floating-point number with a unit; that means a tunnel can have a length of “meter” or “mile” but not a number. Simple oversight, but I don’t have permissions to fix it.

Fall Of Wicket: Hi ! Nice initiative!

2007-10-04T21:43:55.0000Z

Thanks. There is a cricket match type, however the structure where this exists is a bit different. Basically for every instance of a cricket match there is a roster for each team in the match. The roster models the team for that specific match. The fall of wickets is associated with the roster. Also every match has an associated match type. It is without a doubt a bit complex however given the nature of how these matches and tournaments were conducted this seemed the most generic model.

Hi Aseem! Looks good. But I guess we might as well link it to a Cricket Match type. I am not sure if there is a Cricket Match type created already, but it would be cool to have it and then have that type as one of the properties of Fall Of Wicket. Let me check...

Cricket Administrative Body: CEOs and presidents

Good point! I will remove the properties, since it is already co-typed as an employer.

Cricket Administrative Body: CEOs and presidents

2007-09-26T16:04:56.0012Z

The current model has properties for current and past CEOs and presidents. All point to the type "employment tenure", which is a CVT. Unfortunately, the Freebase UI won't allow users to connect to existing CVTs this way, so this is likely to create redundant employment tenure instances.

Instead it would be best to cross-type cricket administrative body with employer, which will provide a property for "employees", where the job title could be CEO or president.

Also, it's not typical in freebase to have properties for current and past members/employees, although there are exceptions. In this particular case, though, using the employees property on the co-type employer will provide start and end sub-properties.

I've hidden the CEO and President properties for now and recommend that we add a cotype for employer.

Cricket Team: Sport twice?

2007-08-20T15:30:25.0007Z

Good catch! Thanks. I removed the user property.

Cricket Team: Sport twice?

2007-08-19T07:32:11.0004Z

Cricket team has Sport twice, once included from Sports Team, and once as a user property. I thin kthe user property should be deleted as it duplicates the Sports Team property and doesn't have any linkage.

Cricket Match Type: Full scorecard

2007-06-08T21:52:38.0011Z

We do have something that resembles a full scorecard but its associated with a roster/team per match.

An example would be the Aussie roster for the first inning of the first test in the Ashes 2005 series:

The following types when combined (for both teams) make up the full score-card for an inning in a match:

Cricket Roster Keeping
CCricket Roster Extras
CCricket Roster Bowling
CCricket Roster Batting

aseem: Modeling the full scorecard of a cricket match

Hi Aseem
Nice job starting the freebase types for cricket. I was wondering if you have thought about modeling the full scorecard of a match. (I left a post on the Cricket Match Type message board, probably should have left it on the Cricket Match type). Anyways, this is something I'm very interested in doing. Let me know.

Cheers
Srinivas

Cricket Match Type: Following up on my previous post

2007-06-08T21:28:17.0011Z

If someone is working on modeling the scorecard, please let me know. I'd be very interesting in contributing to the effort of creating it (brainstorming, reviewing it etc.)

Thanks
Srinivas

Cricket Match Type: Modeling the full scorecard of a match

2007-06-08T21:23:15.0011Z

Anyone thought about modeling the full scorecard of a match? That would be really useful to write all sorts of interesting queries over it (for e.g., who was the highest scorer, most wicket taker etc.)
