Citation needed in Ontology article
I saw that you added a citation needed tag a while ago to the ontology article. I agree absolutely. Although after reading the paragraph I would go even further. I work with ontologies in the Web Ontology Language every day and I think the paragraph where you added the citation needed is POV and not encyclopedic. Essentially, you could say the same thing about any software: Java code, relational databases, etc. Different people have different ideas about what the software should do. The paragraph is vacuous and really says nothing and I strongly doubt one could find a reliable source that would support that paragraph. I feel similarly about the paragraph after it as well, although in this case it is a bit different. There are people who claim that upper models make ontologies more reusable but I’ve asked people who make this claim for evidence and I’ve yet to see any that is at all convincing. Also, there are many people in the ontology community who strongly disagree and think upper models are harmful rather than helpful. This is a bit over simplified but I think it roughly corresponds to academics (most like upper models) vs. people who use ontologies in the real world (most think upper models are at best a waste of effort). I think that second paragraph would need a lot of work to describe both sides of the argument and find references, but I don’t have time to do that now. Since neither paragraph has references, my suggestion is we delete them both for now. Just wanted to check to see if you agree. --MadScientistX11 (talk) 20:00, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
