Adding a Type to a Topic

Sometimes you'll find a topic that is missing information and none of the types associated with it contain the properties you want. For instance, imagine you're viewing the actress Jennifer Lopez and you notice that there isn't any information about her musical career in the topic. In this case you click on the 'Add a Type' button to add a new type to the Jennifer Lopez topic. Here you would enter the type 'musical artist'.

Types can be removed as well. If you find a topic that has been mis-typed, for instance when something has a type but no data in its properties, you can remove the type from the topic by selecting 'Remove Type' from the 'more options' menu below each type name.
