I am using WordPress and I am planning to use Schema.org to optimize the site for SEO. Because of WordPress’ structure, I am forced to put the itemprop=text on a div, containing both the whole content of the article (which is fine), but also a div which contains a ratingblock with thumbs …
Is this fine or not? Will this be a problem? I know it’s not optimal, but I guess I don’t have another choice. Example:
<article id="post-29436" itemtype="http://schema.org/BlogPosting" itemscope="">
<header>
<div class="post-entry" itemprop="text">
<div>
<div class="thumblock ">
<img of a thumb>
<img of a thumb>
<p>
content of postcontent of postcontent of postcontent of post
<p>
</div>
</div>

itemprop="description" should only be used on descriptive texts, for example a product description. To use it elsewhere could be considered a spammy practice. I doubt you'd get penalised for it, but I'm guessing you will want to use the tags correctly. I believe that using them incorrectly won't result in the desired effect anyways. The whole point of using these tags is to tell search engines for example, what the data is meant for. Giving the entire <article> itemprop="description" would probably not be useful.
I do not understand what you mean with "because of Wordpress' structure". You can put whatever tag you want, on anything you want within the content area. Just use the code view. If it strips the tags after save, look into replacing TinyMCE with something else. A bit off topic but oh well.. :)
