VojtechSvatek about Context Slices (Revision ID: Slices?oldid=10058 10058)

Overall suggestion (score): 1 - needs minor revision

Review Summary: A reasonable, non-trivial logical pattern.

Some associated modelling decisions should be made more precise. In particular, the domain/range of the new relation is not obvious: is it set to cs:ContextualProjection? How can it be distinguished from the general (factual) relation with the same meaning, which would have natural concepts (such as Company and Person) in domain/range?

To unify terminology, I would prefer to use the name 'Contextual Projection' for the pattern itself, too. (Knowing that Anglo-Saxon people are fond of figurative names such as 'slices' ;-))
Reviewer Confidence: The pattern is quite generic and I feel competent to judge it.
Problems: Just as outlined above.
Community Relevance: Yes, it addresses a pretty relevant and important problem.
Relation to Best Practices: For the problem in question, this (or just slightly modified) pattern seems to be best practice.
Reusability: Rather generic.
Relations to Other Patterns: There is obvious relation to the n-ary relation pattern (e.g. by SWBPD) and actually also to RDF reification as kind-of pattern.
Overall Understandability: Neat description aside the missing details as stated above.
Clear Problem Description: Yes, looks clear.
Clear Relevance and Consequences: Yes, but the consequences could still be elaboreted a bit more.
Clear Figures and Illustrations: Yes.
Missing Information: As above.
