The use of rdfs:label and rdfs:comment

The rdfs:label is to be used for the administration of the resource. It will be used in search URLs. It can be composed from other parts of the resource. There should only be one label per language.

The rdfs:comment is to be used for the administration of the resources and its connections. It's not to be used as the description of the thing represented by the resource.

For presentation to the public, properties like name, alias, title and description should be used.
