\section{Future Potential}
In the literature knowledge graphs are not (usually) distinguished from ``bare statement'' graphs, in that they do not encode or publish the epistemology \footnote{Epistemology defines why something is known} of knowledge asserted in the graph.
We see this as troubling because it does not
privilege {\em privilege} knowledge: in most existing knowledge graphs supported and unsupported assertions are given equal weight.
Moving forward, there is an opportunity to leverage existing vocabularies, including the Provenance Ontology (PROV-O) \cite{Moreau_2015}, and the Nanopublications Framework \cite{groth2010anatomy}, to improve the clarity and utility of knowledge graphs.
A nanopublication is a set of RDF graphs: an
\em{assertion {\em assertion graph} (the knowledge), a
\em{provenance {\em provenance graph} (the justification), and an
\em{attribution {\em attribution graph} (the believer).
While justified true belief is not sufficient for knowledge, most other proposals, including a causal linkage between the justification, assertion, and believer, are well-supported within provenance vocabularies.
Added to a knowledge graph, the provenance graph can expand to provide room for whatever epistemic criteria is desired.
