Drop table mappings support
Should we drop support for Table mappings in the framework? This didn't work as expected so far
http://mappings.dbpedia.org/index.php?title=Special%3APrefixIndex&prefix=Table&namespace=204 http://mappings.dbpedia.org/index.php/How_to_edit_DBpedia_Mappings#How_to_map_a_Wikipedia_Table
Yeah, that was in idea for the project focusing on extracting better and more data for car-related stuff. I wouldn't mind if it was removed.
Please don't drop! We're getting into some Automotive stuff (brands, races, series etc) and can work on fixing whatever doesn't work.
TableMap | Wikipedia | Sample | Notes |
---|---|---|---|
Automobile | BMW_3_Series | extract | engines & sales. Fixed a bit |
Race | 2015_Firestone_Grand_Prix_of_St._Petersburg | extract | race results |
Championship | 2015_IndyCar_Series | extract | championship teams, drivers |
I fixed a bit the Automobile map and it produces results on the indicated sample (though attaches the Sales numbers to BMW 3 Series (F30/F31) which is the last infobox on the page, rather than to BMW 3 Series overall).
Unfortunately I have no luck with the other 2 maps I created. I suspect the reason is that the tables in the indicated sample pages have a more complex structure:
-
2015_Firestone_Grand_Prix_of_St._Petersburg#Race_results has some headers like
{{abbr|Pos|Position}}
instead of merelyPosition
- 2015_IndyCar_Series#Teams_and_drivers has vertical cell spans
It's either this, or these two new table maps are somehow not enacted by the server? @jimkont or @jcsahnwaldt please help!
