SharePoint Taxonomy: How to Start
From the post:
Are you wondering how to start with SharePoint Taxonomy?
Many people have heard about the value of managed metadata, term store, and tagging in SharePoint 2010 and SharePoint 2013 but don’t have a taxonomy and are wondering what a taxonomy looks like and how to get started.
Download a free SharePoint Taxonomy from WAND and begin to see how taxonomy, managed metadata, and the term store in SharePoint can improve searching and findability of your SharePoint content. This taxonomy is a starter set of terms covering Legal, IT, HR, Accounting and Finance, and Sales and Marketing
There are more taxonomies at: http://blog.wandinc.com/p/sharepoint-2010-2013-and-online.html.
I ran across this today while thinking about the question of design patterns.
The web is littered with taxonomies, ontologies, thesauri, etc., so rather than starting over from scratch, why not cut-n-paste/adapt/represent existing structures as topic maps?
Suggestions of other sources?
Particularly ones you are interested in seeing as topic maps!
