I have added some wikipedia links to the forestry table.
I am not a big fan of wikipedia links for definitions of tags, because wp pages
change, and have a different scope. Better copy those parts from the article
that are relevant for osm.

I agree that a basic definition of a key/value should be in OSM. But some want
more information, and wikipedia is one place they seek that information from.
An example of what I have;
tag: produce=timber description: Trees harvested for*timber
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timber>*, called 'lumber' in north America.
Further processing results in sawn wood, wood chips, paper.
only timber has a wikipedia link here .. and that link is redirected by
wikipedia to lumber ...
I do not want to define timber here.. it is the harvesting of the trees and
the direction of the produce that is important here, not the end product.
