Hi,

Blue bullets mean "is used by the reasoner". Red bullets mean "is not used by the reasoner". The 
latter is the case for all statements that cannot be translated into OWL or that would use the OWL 
constructs TransitiveObjectProperty or SubObjectPropertyChain. The problem with these two axiom 
types is that statements using them can violate the "Nonstructural Restrictions on Axioms":

   http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/WD-owl2-syntax-20080411/#Nonstructural_Restrictions_on_Axioms

Since I don't know how to handle these restrictions in a collaborative environment like a wiki, I 
simply disallow the axiom types that are involved.

Thus, the reason why you don't get an answer for questions like "Which continent contains Oslo?" is 
that the statement "If X is located in Y and Y is located in Z then X is located in Z." is ignored 
by the reasoner.

If you have an idea how TransitiveObjectProperty and SubObjectPropertyChain could be supported in a 
simple way without the danger to violate these nonstructural restrictions, let me know!
