I have been looking at improving the description of Packages, in particular their capabilities/purpose. To this end I have been looking at the STATO Ontology which contains descriptions of statistical methods (“objectives”). I have processed the RDF of the Ontology into markdown, and placed it in the DataSHIELD wiki: [STATO Ontology Package Information](https://wiki.datashield.org/en/opmanag/stato_ontology_package_information)

I am interested in knowing if the Ontology contains entities you with highlight in packages or find in packages?
