: Schema.org 'CollectionPage' for list of blog posts by specific author I'm trying to mark up a page and I'm trying to use CollectionPage with a number of blog links on the page. Would this

The author

Your description seems to be about the person, not the page. And for creator, you would ideally provide a Person value (which then also allows you to add the description there).

However, the blog post author is not really the author of this page. Either omit the creator on this level and add it to each blog post, and/or (I’m not 100 % sure if this is appropriate) use about.

The list

Using hasPart for each blog post is possible, but I would prefer to use mainEntity with a Blog or an ItemList value (as suggested in your previous question).

The blog posts

Instead of CreativeWork, you should use the more specific BlogPosting.

Instead of about, you should use description. (about could be used for the topic the blog post is about.)

In addition to headline, you might want to use name (with the same content, just like you did with CollectionPage).

As mentioned above, you might want to add creator (or author) to each BlogPosting.

Example

Here I’m using about (for the Person) and mainEntity (for the ItemList). I also gave the Person a URI (via @id ), and reference this URI as value for the author property in each BlogPosting.

In case the use of about is not appropriate in this context, you can omit it and provide the Person node also on the top-level (by using @graph ).
