Spreadsheets are widely used by knowledge workers, especially
in the industrial sector. Their methodology enables a well understood,
easy and fast possibility to enter data. As filling out a spreadsheet is more
accessible to common knowledge workers than defining RDF statements,
in this paper, we present a tool which uses the spreadsheet metaphor to
enable various kinds of users to easily create RDF data whether they
are RDF experts or novices. Our approach aims at supporting users in
manually filling a knowledge base with their expertise. This is usually a
collaborative process involving a team of domain experts and knowledge
engineers. To immediately see modelling consequences and updates by
others, each entry is simultaneously transferred into triple statements.
