Typing your entities ensures data verifiability and trust

Description

Each data point in the knowledge graph is a triple with an entity, attribute, and value, and users can see who added what and what process was used to vote on and accept that information. This transparency and accountability are vital in establishing trust in the data, especially in an era where misinformation is rampant.
