The Dublin Core Metadata Initiative RDA Task Group has produced lists of vocabularies and value encoding schemes originating from MARC and from the more recent work on RDA.

SchemaWeb is a directory of schemas and vocabularies expressed in RDF/RDFS/OWL compiled by the people who brought us FOAF (among others). No significant update activity over the past few years.


Frequently asked: Cartoon characters, performing animals, and the like

Examples

Relevance

Often asked for by cataloguers and by users of filmographic data.

A type of Agent?

First and foremost, this appears to be a question of the nature of these creations. Can they qualify as Agents because they appear to be capable of acting in certain ways?

From the EN 15907 definition of Agent:

"... an entity that is involved in the creation, realization, curation or exploitation of a Cinematographic Work"

For some philosophical concepts of agents and actions, see [10].

In drama, a fictitious character would be considered as part of the subject of the work.
