Example

As it is, the Example is not at all instructive for someone trying to understand the concept, since it relies on terms that are less familiar than the topic of the article. Can someone who understands the topic please explain it or choose a different example? — Sebastian 18:34, 22 December 2015 (UTC)

What is synonym ring in relation to data elements

From reading the original revision of this article, my impression is that the intended meaning was as a set of equivalent concepts or entities, not terms. Thus, in terms of Wikidata, all concepts connected by "said to be the same as" would be a synonym ring. However, a more common understanding is probably that each Wikidata concept/entity (article) is itself a synonym ring, a set of synonyms. The question remains whether the former sense can be sourced.
