Property talk:Located in

[edit] OntoCleanPaper example

I want to use something to define the relationship between a Political entity and the corresponding Geographical region which contains it. This is a distinction made in the OntoCleanPaper. It is clear that located in has been used in a much wider sense, as seen in the ontological discussion. For my restricted purpose it I am going to have to define another property. In many cases the geographical region will have the same name as the political entity, and I need to be able to represent that as well. The thing that fits with definitions used already is has location geographical region or has geographical location. I will try out the last one.

[edit] Subproperties

The interaction with subproperties is interesting, in the context of the OntoCleanPaper example. I had not looked into Located in enough to find the subproperties. Now that has been pointed out I have added a property has subproperty to make that clear, and defined it to be the inverse. There are two things which cannot be done without editing the property subproperty of, which is in the category of things defined on semantic media wiki. These are to list its instances, and define its inverse. Is it alright to make these changes?
