I'm listing my conference publications on my homepage (German website). I want to annotate those publications with Schema.org. In bibtex those publications are inproceedings (see here).

Schema.org provides CreativeWork and subclasses. But, I can not find any type suitable for a conference publication. I'm not sure if Article is the right class to choose.

Do you have any recommendation to annotate a conference publication?

CreativeWork is definitely the correct parent type, and if there should be no suitable sub-type, you could simply go with CreativeWork.

But I think the sub-type Article is suitable, and in your case probably its sub-type ScholarlyArticle.

Note that there is also the Bibliographic Extension of Schema.org, but as far as scientific publications are concerned, it currently only seems to define a Thesis type, which doesn’t help in your case.

  • Thanks for the information. I think none of the classes really matches to scientific publications. I will stick with `Article`. – schrieveslaach Feb 22 '16 at 08:10
