Whenever possible, one of these more specific predicates should be used. Wikipedia Article URL (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rNv0nbm4TTjOp7yhmnzOyqg" class="cyc_term">wikipediaArticleURL</a> THING URL) means that in <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rtqXA6OC8QdiWC72DuLJdUw" class="cyc_term">Wikipedia_WebSite</a> THING is described by an article located at URL wikipediaArticleURL seeAlsoURI <code>(<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4riWVFR6HJSpaEaHrcWS3MSA" class="cyc_term">seeAlsoURI</a> <b>THING</b> <b>URI</b>)</code> means that a description of the resource identified by URI is likely to contain information pertinent to THING. This predicate is roughly equivalent to rdfs:seeAlso. See Also URI Partitioned Into partitionedInto (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVj1MJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">partitionedInto</a> SETORCOL PART) means that the mathematical set or collection PART is a partition of the mathematical set or collection SETORCOL; that is, the elements of PART are themselves mathematical sets or collections, and every element of SETORCOL is an element of exactly one element of PART, and every element of PART is a subset of SETORCOL. In other words, PART is a set or collection of pairwise disjoint sets or collections whose union is co-extensional with SETORCOL. Typically, the <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rk8dxOVcGEdaLwgACs0uFOQ" class="cyc_term">DisjointSetOrCollectionType</a> that plays the role of PART in an assertion about partitioning will be a set specified by enumerating its elements, using the function <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvcUeB5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">ThePartition</a>.

An instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwQwYVpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">AilmentCondition</a> is a dynamic state of sickness, injury, or physiological impairment. The rationale for construing ailments in this way is the obvious fact that to have an ailment is to undergo an event: an individual ailment has temporal features, it progresses dynamically, and so on. It is not just a matter of being in some static state of &quot;unwellness&quot;. Subcollections of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwQwYVpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">AilmentCondition</a> include <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvWPCEpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">RespiratoryAilment</a>, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwQr9o5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">HeartCondition</a>, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwP1qGpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Cancer</a>, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwP1IRZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">MotionSickness</a>, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwP1e1JwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Poisoning</a>, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwQwvf5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Infection</a>, and <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvWKT6pwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">InjuryCondition</a>. If a particular person has an infection, that event is an instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwQwYVpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">AilmentCondition</a>. An <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwQwYVpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">AilmentCondition</a> does not begin before there is an actual, developed sickness or impairment, and thus does not include the event of getting sick or becoming impaired. Also note that each type of ailment, such as <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwQwvf5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Infection</a>, is the collection of all &quot;cases&quot; or &quot;instances&quot; of individuals suffering from that condition.

Note that this can relate to the ailment conditions associated with an infection as well as the infection itself. This predicate relates a particular instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwQwvf5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Infection</a> to an organism which causes that infection.

(<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjVYJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">covering</a> SETORCOL COVER) means that COVER is a covering of SETORCOL: the elements of COVER are themselves mathematical sets or collections, and every element of SETORCOL is an element of at least one of the elements of COVER. For example, the Linnaean taxonomy of types of living things (Dog, Mammal, Chordate, Fungus, etc.) is a covering of the set of all animals alive today, as every animal alive today is a member of one or more of the Linnaean categories. Note that COVER may contain &quot;extra&quot; elements that are not members of SETORCOL. For example, the union of all the Linnaean categories (see <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjf5JwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">OrganismClassificationType</a>) is actually much larger than the set of animals alive today, encompassing as it does plants, extinct animal species, etc. In order to express an assertion about covering, one need not create a new constant from scratch to play the role of COVER if such a constant doesn't already exist. Instead, using the function <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwMTOWpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">TheCovering</a> (q.v.), one can specify a covering by enumerating its elements.
