I was thinking of using osmosis to filter out objects with wikipedia
tag and then running a query in PostGIS. What a brain fade I've had,
we have Taginfo to the rescue:
http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/wikipedia#values
It's really interesting to see Wikipedia tags on individual ways of
routes,
As always, these linguistic preferences color every discussion. I use the word
junkyard as do most Americans but I settled on scrapyard as a reasonable
compromise but YMMV. these conversations tend to go round and round and I am
satisfied with what I have.

What is your linguistic frame of reference?
In the UK, the word "junkyard" is not used often and I would go to a
"scrapyard" (or even more likely a "breakers [yard]") for a "new" window
for my old car.

Concerning your suggestion to use "name=n1 alt_name=n2;n3", let me
rethorically wonder why you didn't suggest "name=n1;n2;n3" ? I expect
it is because the risk of semicolons in the "name" tag catching some

It's a great shame that OSM seems incapable of moving its information
model forwards. There have been so many discussions about the need for a
way of representing multi-valued attributes (as occur in real life)
within the OSM framework, and yet it keeps coming back again and again.
