8. About Categories and Taxonomies
Taxonomy‘ is the practice and science of Categorization
‚Taxis‘ → Arrangements / Categorization
‚Nomos‘ → anything assigned / named
‚Categorization is the process in which ideas and objects are recognized, differentiated and understood‘
Classical: mutually exclusive, one entity belongs to exactly one category
Prototype: some ‚entities‘ are more central than others‘ (a kind of feudalism)
Conceptual clustering: assigning ‚Concepts‘, entities may belong to more than one Category.

11. The 4 Categories

12. The 4 Slices → Apply equally to any Category
Concepts describes ideas, theories, common terms etc, which an IDPro should be aware of.
Regulations and laws which are to be taken into account, either generally or within a given industry.
Good Practices are methods within the given field which turned out to be useful or common.
Standards & Protocols are norms such as industry standards or communication protocols.
CONCEPTS
...that have evolved during time dealing with (digital) identities and their many facets.
Concepts describes ideas, theories, procedures and common terms a ID-Professional should be aware of, even though the described concept might not be covered by regulations, best practices or standards.
REGULATIONS
...and laws which are to be taken into account when dealing with (digital) identities, either in general or within a given industry
GOOD PRACTICE
… are methods or techniques within the given field which have gained wide acceptance to be applied in preference to other methods and techniques.The superiority of a ‘best practice’ is commonly measured based on better results (in quantity, quality or manageability).
This also includes ‘de-facto’ standards.
STANDARDS & PROTOCOLS
...are norms, requirements and conventions. This can be described as a general principle to be followed (canon), as industry standard such as RFC and ISO or technically as communication protocol describing the interaction between two or more computer systems.

(Semantic?) Document Management
additional Tagging
Expert Edits
Body of
Knowledge
Taxonomy
Collate
First
Create a simple Link/Document collection, which consist of meta data only
Link to document
Short description (max 200 Characters)
Release/ Document Date (Month/YEAR as YYYYMM)
Tagging for source (limited tagging), eg
Non-Profit Organization
Profit Organization
Personal (Blog or similiar)
Standards
Government/ legalneral
Then
- semantics /Document Mangement to create a library
- additional tagging by experts
- BoK creation (reading / book edition) based on exper editing
