  ResearchSource:
      description: >-
        A research source consulted during location resolution or other
        investigative processes. Records the type of source (Wikidata,
        web archive, official documents), identifiers, URLs, and any
        structured data obtained from consultation.
        
        Ontology mapping rationale:
        - class_uri is prov:PrimarySource because research sources are
          primary sources of information consulted during resolution
        - close_mappings includes cito:CitationAct as consulting a source
          is similar to citing it for evidence
        - related_mappings includes schema:CreativeWork (sources are works)
          and prov:Entity (sources are traceable entities)
      class_uri: prov:PrimarySource
      close_mappings:
        - cito:CitationAct
      related_mappings:
        - schema:CreativeWork
        - prov:Entity
