Hello,
I was searching for the towns of algiers in Algeria, I found a town that is normally located in asia which is Zīn Darreh. In the map it is located in Asia but the onlogy places it in Algiers, the capital of lgeria.

Here is an rdf chunk when I request the towns of Algiers :

Code:
<Feature rdf:about="http://sws.geonames.org/1468242/">
 <name>Zīn Darreh</name>
 <featureClass rdf:resource="http://www.geonames.org/ontology#P"/>
 <featureCode rdf:resource="http://www.geonames.org/ontology#P.PPL"/>
 <inCountry rdf:resource="http://www.geonames.org/countries/#DZ"/>
 <wgs84_pos:lat>37.2030556</wgs84_pos:lat>
 <wgs84_pos:long>70.5544444</wgs84_pos:long>
 <nearbyFeatures rdf:resource="http://sws.geonames.org/1468242/nearby.rdf"/>
 <locationMap>http://www.geonames.org/1468242/zin-darreh.html</locationMap>
 </Feature>


Can you corrct this please.
thanks

sorry to bother you again but, Zin Darreh still appears in my request. I think it's because the rdf attribute inCountry = dz.
Code:
<Feature rdf:about="http://sws.geonames.org/1468242/">
 <name>Zīn Darreh</name>
 <featureClass rdf:resource="http://www.geonames.org/ontology#P"/>
 <featureCode rdf:resource="http://www.geonames.org/ontology#P.PPL"/>
 <inCountry rdf:resource="http://www.geonames.org/countries/#DZ"/>
 <wgs84_pos:lat>37.2030556</wgs84_pos:lat>
 <wgs84_pos:long>70.5544444</wgs84_pos:long>
 <nearbyFeatures rdf:resource="http://sws.geonames.org/1468242/nearby.rdf"/>
 <locationMap>http://www.geonames.org/1468242/zin-darreh.html</locationMap>
 </Feature>


Can you correct this again please

Code:
http://ws.geonames.org/search?q=Alger&type=rdf&lang=fr&country=dz&style=medium&featureCode=ppl&featureCode=pplc

The rdf search server had some problems with synchronization to the main server.
