[Data-modeling] Structured or typed weblinks?

[Don Jackson]

For the sake of an example, consider one of my favorite Freebase  
types,  restaurants.

When you are looking at the entry for a specific restaurant, there is  
list of weblinks.

I wish there was a convention for assigning these links specific types.

For example, if the restaurant in question has their own website, one  
of the links should be to that site,
and it should have some distinguished type (eg official_website).
For a restaurant, there might be other types for menu, reviews,  
photos, etc.)

When one is retrieving the info about a restaurant and displaying it,
it would be quite valuable to have these associated links typed, so  
they can
be presented to the user in a consistent way, and with the appropriate  
context.

I just brought up the edit dialog for the weblinks for a specific  
restaurant.

The edit form has fields for url,  title, and type.
The only type that is allowed it seems is "Related webpages" which is  
way too non-specific for what I have in mind.

Thoughts/comments?
