KNOWN LIMITATIONS OF THE CURRENT DBLP RDF SCHEMA

If you happen to find a limitation that is not listed here but that you would like
to see addressed, please let us know via dblp(at)dagstuhl.de. Thank you very much!

* currently no entity modelling is implemented (but planned) for
  - affiliations
  - publishers
  - venues (ie, journals and conference series)
  - conference/workshop events (the 'actual meeting' as opposed to the 'proceedings')
  - table of contents (i.e., volumes and issues)

* no modelling planned, since no such data is available in dblp:
  - first/last/middle/etc name part breakdown
  - person bio data (such as birthdates, nationality, gender, etc;
    we link to wikidata.org, so such information might be available there)
  - email addresses or contact information beside academic homepages
  - language of dblp:title or full-texts, etc
  - distinction between sub-types of dblp:Inproceedings, like poster or full-paper
  - distinction between sub-types of dblp:Article, like preface or book review
  - distinction between sub-types of dblp:Book, like textbook, phd thesis,
    habilitation, etc
  - no author/editor information is available for dblp:Withdrawn items

* currently no cites/cited-by links available in dblp; such information can be
  obtained from opencitations.net using the DOI we provide

* dblp:monthOfPublication information is only very, very rarely available

* some metadata of dblp:Inproceedings and dblp:Incollection, like ISBN of
  containing book, containing series, etc is currently not available at
  publication level (needs to be accessed via dblp:publishedAsPartOf)

* some metadata of dblp:Article like ISSN is currently not available at
  publication level (needs venue and table of contents modelling first)

* in the full dblp RDF dump, a number of implicit properties are omitted
  due to technical limitations of the dump file creation process, as well
  as for space efficiency; those properties can still be inferred from
  the contained data and created locally if necessary:
  - "D dblp:createdBy A" implies "A dblp:creatorOf D"
  - "D dblp:authoredBy A" implies "A dblp:authorOf D"
  - "D dblp:editedBy A" implies "A dblp:editorOf D"
  - "D dblp:createdBy A" and "D dblp:createdBy B" implies "A dblp:coCreatorWith B"
  - "D dblp:authoredBy A" and "D dblp:authoredBy B" implies "A dblp:coAuthorWith B"
  - "D dblp:editedBy A" and "D dblp:editedBy B" implies "A dblp:coEditorWith B"
