It has already been said that the word "instead" is not appropriate here right now. On the long range, the practical success of two methods will decide by itself. Practically, if I click "item with ID Q1722 <https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1722>", the first impression is > A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. > You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script > will complete. then quite a dump of seemingly computer savvy data (OK with me but frightening many). I suppose that it should be formatted differently, but I'd like to see how to have an opinion. On the other hand, Wikipedia is fast and pretty and, as indeed I often want to switch to Дубровник for more interesting data and a challenge to understand I click ru in the left pane. It took me some time to get to Wikipedia from Wikidata and I was surprised to see there reference to Wikidata only in tools. The last URL I used for OSM is http://www.palogne.be and I would like to know how I can find the corresponding Wikidata ID to go alongside. Cheers, André.
