I already know that there exist several ontologies for describing e.g., comments like http://www.openannotation.org/spec/core/core.html, or SIOC, but I could not find an ontology that covers all kinds of social data activities of one object(including tags, ratings, shares, comment,...).
Hi! I remember I found some hints on these topics in the article "Enhancing Subjective Ontologies with Social Tagging Systems" by D. Hooijmaijers and M. Stumptner (2008). It presents the RIPOSTE ontology framework (based on OWL DL and subjective logic) that aims at describing, capturing and managing user generated actions and items in a social environment, such as folksonomies (user defined tags, use of descriptive items...), and user-based rating systems and relations. The article also provide some useful references for related work. However, I don't know if the framework is available.
Article Enhancing Subjective Ontologies with Social Tagging Systems
Hi there, I just came across this, which may be what you are looking for:

Hi all,
Thanks for your answers. Among the papers you recommended, I could not find any practical ontology covering all kinds of social activities. At lease to cover rating, sharing, comment and taging together. Some comments below:
Gianni,
the article mostly related to capturing agreement in the user opinions by using meta-tagging. So it focuses on a specific area and not all types of social activities such as mentioned (e.g., rating)
Ana Alice,
Your paper is very interesting, although I could not find an ontology related to the suggested DC vocabularies. For example, the rating is multi-dimensional which should consider several aspects like rating type, rating value, ... which I miss it here.
Any case, is these any practical or implemented ontology in this regard to download?
Finally, I am creating a social data ontology from the scratch so that all kinds of social activity related to one digital object are covered. Maybe it leads to a paper, any one interested?
