Inherited properties ​

PropertyExpected typeInherited fromDescription
additionalTypeText, URLThingAn additional type for the item, typically used for adding more specific types from external vocabularies in microdata syntax. This is a relationship between something and a class that the thing is in. Typically the value is a URI-identified RDF class, and in this case corresponds to the use of rdf:type in RDF. Text values can be used sparingly, for cases where useful information can be added without their being an appropriate schema to reference. In the case of text values, the class label should follow the schema.org style guide.
alternateNameTextThingAn alias for the item.
descriptionText, TextObjectThingA description of the item.
disambiguatingDescriptionTextThingA sub property of description. A short description of the item used to disambiguate from other, similar items. Information from other properties (in particular, name) may be necessary for the description to be useful for disambiguation.
identifierPropertyValue, Text, URLThingThe identifier property represents any kind of identifier for any kind of Thing, such as ISBNs, GTIN codes, UUIDs etc. Schema.org provides dedicated properties for representing many of these, either as textual strings or as URL (URI) links. See background notes for more details.
imageImageObject, URLThingAn image of the item. This can be a URL or a fully described ImageObject.

Enumeration values ​

  • AuthoritativeLegalValue Indicates that the publisher gives some special status to the publication of the document. ("The Queens Printer" version of a UK Act of Parliament, or the PDF version of a Directive published by the EU Office of Publications). Something "Authoritative" is considered to be also OfficialLegalValue".
  • DefinitiveLegalValue Indicates a document for which the text is conclusively what the law says and is legally binding. (e.g. The digitally signed version of an Official Journal.) Something "Definitive" is considered to be also AuthoritativeLegalValue.
  • OfficialLegalValue All the documents published by an official publisher should have at least the legal value level "OfficialLegalValue". This indicates that the document was published by an organisation with the public task of making it available (e.g. a consolidated version of a EU directive published by the EU Office of Publications).
  • UnofficialLegalValue Indicates that a document has no particular or special standing (e.g. a republication of a law by a private publisher).
