Talk:Syntactic web
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I get the hang of your arguments and I think at least for the moment they are correct. On the other hand you can interpret the notion of the Semantic Web in an anthropocentric manner. This new level of the Web is semantic, because it operates on knowledge and terms respectively more human-like. In other words: Not the Semantic Web as an entity is semantic but it acts with human semantics and therefore is recognized by humans as a "semantic web". --Ontoversum 10:23, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Towards a genuine article
JA: In its current state the syntactic web article amounts to nothing more than an op-ed piece, and someone is bound to challenge its right to exist in Wikipedia eventually if that's all it remains. Not me, as I could not do that consistently without challenging myriads of other articles on the same, er, grounds. And since the subject is interesting in its own right, the instigator thereof might consider documenting the use of the term syntactic web as it may occur in peer-reviewed print somwhere, and further anchoring the claims of the text with a few standard citations.

[edit] Rewrite
I removed the entire article, aside from the external link, and wrote some new paragraphs in its place. It was one person's (contrarian) opinion, and, while interesting, didn't belong in an encyclopedia article. Yaron K. 21:45, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Capitalization / article rename
I've corrected the capitalization of the wikilinks for World Wide Web and Semantic Web in the article body; those are proper nouns and should be capitalized, just like their article titles.
In that spirit, I believe the title of this article, Syntactic Web, should also be capitalized. However, there's already a redirect page at Syntactic Web, so a simple page move isn't possible.
Similarly, the 'W' in Category:Semantic web should also be changed, but that will require going through the category rename process.
I don't have time to follow up on either of those. Can someone else do it? —mjb 21:39, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
