This talk was presented at the BioCaddie http://biocaddie.org/ workshop at the Force15 conference (https://www.force11.org/meetings/force2015) on changing the future of scholarly communication. The goal was to increase awareness of why a Semantic Web-compliant standard was needed for describing data, where current standards fall short, and how this new emerging standard that extends prior efforts can aid data discovery and integration. This work is being lead by Michel Dumontier, Alasdair Gray, Joachim Baran, and M. Scott Marshall; participants and end-user testers are welcome, see: http://tiny.cc/hcls-datadesc-ed
