	assign a coarse-grained or fine-grained type to each mention, and link it to an
	English Knowledge Base (KB) if it is linkable. We achieve this goal by
	performing a series of new KB mining methods: generating ``silver-standard''
	annotations by transferring annotations from English to other languages through
	cross-lingual links and KB properties, refining annotations through
	self-training and topic selection, deriving language-specific morphology
	features from anchor links, and mining word translation pairs from
	cross-lingual links. Both name tagging and linking results for 282 languages
	are promising on Wikipedia data and on-Wikipedia data.},
