kempersc dfa667c90f Fix LinkML schema for valid RDF generation with proper slot_uri
Summary:
- Create 46 missing slot definition files with proper slot_uri values
- Add slot imports to main schema (01_custodian_name_modular.yaml)
- Fix YAML examples sections in 116+ class and slot files
- Fix PersonObservation.yaml examples section (nested objects → string literals)

Technical changes:
- All slots now have explicit slot_uri mapping to base ontologies (RiC-O, Schema.org, SKOS)
- Eliminates malformed URIs like 'custodian/:slot_name' in generated RDF
- gen-owl now produces valid Turtle with 153,166 triples

New slot files (46):
- RiC-O slots: rico_note, rico_organizational_principle, rico_has_or_had_holder, etc.
- Scope slots: scope_includes, scope_excludes, archive_scope
- Organization slots: organization_type, governance_authority, area_served
- Platform slots: platform_type_category, portal_type_category
- Social media slots: social_media_platform_category, post_type_*
- Type hierarchy slots: broader_type, narrower_types, custodian_type_broader
- Wikidata slots: wikidata_equivalent, wikidata_mapping

Generated output:
- schemas/20251121/rdf/01_custodian_name_modular_20260107_134534_clean.owl.ttl (6.9MB)
- Validated with rdflib: 153,166 triples, no malformed URIs

Projects and initiatives run by this encompassing body.
Links EncompassingBody (organizer) to Project instances that represent
time-limited initiatives in which Custodians participate.
**Inverse of Project.organizing_body**:
- EncompassingBody → projects → Project[]
- Project → organizing_body → EncompassingBody
**Navigation Pattern**:
From EncompassingBody, access all projects it has run.
From Project, access organizing body and participating custodians.
**Examples**:
- NDE (NetworkOrganisation) → projects → [Versnellen 2024, Versnellen 2023, ...]
- OCLC (Cooperative) → projects → [Linked Data Initiative, WorldCat Migration, ...]
**Ontology Note**: Uses W3C ORG `org:hasSubOrganization` because Project
is modeled as `org:OrganizationalCollaboration` (a subclass of `org:Organization`).
This property indicates hierarchical containment. Alternative `schema:subjectOf`
was semantically incorrect (means "thing this is described by/about").
**Primarily used by**:
- NetworkOrganisation: Service networks running programs for members
- Cooperative: Member-owned organizations running collaborative projects
- Consortium: Consortia running shared initiatives
Less common for UmbrellaOrganisation (legal parents typically don't run
projects directly - their subsidiary custodians do).

programme_period:
slot_uri: schema:temporalCoverage

description: |
The temporal period during which a funding programme operates.
Many EU and national funding programmes have defined programming periods
(e.g., Horizon Europe 2021-2027, Creative Europe 2021-2027). This slot
captures the programme's temporal extent using CIDOC-CRM TimeSpan pattern.
**Use Cases**:
- EU Framework Programmes (7-year cycles)
- National funding programme periods
- Time-limited grant schemes
- Historical funding programmes (closed)
**TimeSpan Mapping**:
For programmes with precise dates (common for EU programmes):
- Set begin_of_the_begin = end_of_the_begin (exact start)
- Set begin_of_the_end = end_of_the_end (exact end)
For ongoing programmes with uncertain end:
- Set begin_of_the_begin/end_of_the_begin (start date)
- Leave end dates null
**Examples**:
- Horizon Europe: 2021-01-01 to 2027-12-31
- Creative Europe: 2021-01-01 to 2027-12-31
- Digital Europe: 2021-01-01 to 2027-12-31
- Mondriaan Fund: No fixed end (ongoing, leave end null)
examples:

\n**SIX TYPES OF ENCOMPASSING BODIES**:\n\n 1. **UmbrellaOrganisation** - LEGAL\

\ - Example: Digital Heritage Network providing preservation services\n \
\ \n3. **Consortium** - MUTUAL assistance bodies\n - Temporary collaborative\

\ - Example: Library Consortium for shared cataloging\n \n4. **Cooperative**\
\ - MEMBER-OWNED organizations\n - Permanent legal structure with member governance\n\
\ - Members are owners, contributors, AND consumers\n - Typically MIXED\

\ - VALUE-DRIVEN movements\n - Open participation based on shared ideological\

Projects and initiatives run by this encompassing body.

time-limited initiatives in which Custodians participate.
**Inverse of Project.organizing_body**:
- EncompassingBody → projects → Project[]
- Project → organizing_body → EncompassingBody
**Navigation Pattern**:
From EncompassingBody, access all projects it has run over time.
From Project, access the organizing body and participating custodians.
**Examples**:
- NDE (NetworkOrganisation) runs: Versnellen 2024, Versnellen 2023, ...
- OCLC (Cooperative) runs: Linked Data Initiative, WorldCat Migration, ...
- Europeana (NetworkOrganisation) runs: Common Culture, Aggregation 2024, ...
**Why on EncompassingBody?**:
Projects are collaborative initiatives that coordinate MULTIPLE custodians.
They are typically run by networks, cooperatives, or consortia - not by
individual custodians. The organizing body provides the framework, funding,
and coordination for the project.
**Ontology Alignment**:
Uses W3C ORG `org:hasSubOrganization` because Project is modeled as
`org:OrganizationalCollaboration` (a subclass of `org:Organization`).
This property indicates hierarchical containment of Organizations.
**Temporal Dynamics**:
Projects have defined lifecycles (PROPOSED → IN_PROGRESS → COMPLETED).
EncompassingBodies may run multiple projects simultaneously or sequentially.
Track historical projects for organizational memory.

is_a: EncompassingBody
class_uri: schema:Organization
description: |
A service provider network that coordinates and delivers services to member heritage
custodians through TEMPORARY agreements or treaties. Members choose to participate
to access services; participation is NOT legally imposed.
**Characteristics**:
- **Service-oriented**: Provides infrastructure, platforms, training, coordination
- **Voluntary membership**: Custodians choose to join for service benefits
- **Temporary agreements**: Based on contracts/treaties, not permanent legal structure
- **Limited authority**: Coordinates services but no direct governance over members
**Examples**:
- **Digital Heritage Network (Netherlands)**:
- Provides digital preservation infrastructure to museums, archives, libraries
- Members pay fees for services
- No governance authority over member institutions
- **DPLA (Digital Public Library of America)**:
- Aggregates digital collections from libraries/archives
- Members contribute metadata for aggregation
- No control over member collection policies
- **Europeana**:
- European digital heritage aggregation network
- Museums/archives contribute digitized collections
- Coordination, not governance
- **Regional archive networks**:
- Shared conservation labs, digitization services
- Temporary service agreements between institutions
**Temporal Dynamics**:
Network memberships fluctuate - custodians join/leave based on service needs.
Networks themselves may dissolve if service model becomes obsolete or funding ends.
Track membership changes with temporal validity.
