Usage Advice

Use when

Use for the flat fact that an agent founded an organization when the founding date and circumstances need not be first-class.

Avoid when

Avoid it when the founding date, place, or circumstances matter (promote to a founding gmeow:Event with gmeow:eventTypeFounding) and avoid forcing one founder — co-founders and competing standpoint claims coexist (Principle 9).

How to use

Assert one gmeow:foundedBy triple per founder; carry contested claims with gmeow:accordingTo, and promote to a founding gmeow:Event when date or circumstances must be borne.
