I'm very strongly in faviour of tagging with Wikidata IDs; see my project proposal, at: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Pigsonthewing/Wikipedia but the level of understanding needed presents a high barrier to entry. I think we should continue to allow editors to tag with links to Wikipedia articles, but have the editing tool, or a bot, convert the tag to one with the equivalent Wikidata ID (or perhaps add a Wikidata tag, leaving the Wikipedia tag in situ). -- Andy Mabbett @pigsonthewing http://pigsonthewing.org.uk _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
