Considering what can make up a dictionary?• (1) ID = unique urn (e.g. “http://mmisw/ont/q2o/test/gapTest")• (1-n) long name = human readable label (e.g. gap test)• (0-n) short name = (e.g. sst)• (1-n) definition = (note multiple definitions must not be conflicting)• (0-n) symbol = (e.g. "Hs, Td")• (0-n) reference = links to online documents• (0-n) figure = images that help explain or are referenced in the definition• (0-n) relationship = ontological link to other objects• (0-1) equation = defining equation (mathML)• (0-n) notes = additional information supporting the term
