Hi. For https://w3id.org/dpv we have the following example, where FOOPS! does not detect the skos:prefLabel annotation with the error message "This check verifies the extent to which all ontology terms have labels (rdfs:label in OWL vocabularies, skos:prefLabel in SKOS vocabularies) ". I think this means that FOOPS! only looks for rdfs:label in OWL ontologies, and uses skos:prefLabel only for skos:ConceptScheme. Same also applies for skos:definition instead of rdfs:comment.

WIDOCO best practices do suggest using rdfs:label and rdfs:comment as recommended annotations, but when using SKOS the annotations from SKOS should take precedance as they are less ambigious. E.g. SKOS distinguishes between multiple labels (prefLabel and altLabel) and between definitions and notes - which RDFS does not. Using this in ontologies should not be penalised.

Hello, you make a fair point. I think it's worth extending the consideration of labels to the skos ones as well.
