     <p>The RDF data model provides a way to make statements about
     (Web) resources. As we mentioned, this data model does not make any
     assumptions about what these resources stand for. In practice, RDF
     is typically used in combination with vocabularies or other
     conventions that provide semantic information about these
-    resources. For example, if you put the VIAF IRI for Leonardo da
-    Vinci (see Sec. <a href="#subsection-IRI">"IRI"</a>) in your
-    browser you will see a page with information about this
-    person. VIAF maintains a very large set of such person
