Bear in mind that OSM is a community such as we are, with its own
habits and ideas. The idea of OSM is to have everything in one databse
which structure is very open. You can actually put there almost
everything which can be connected with the points, lines or areas and
exist on our mother Earth. See:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Map_Features

You can also propose a new features to be added to the official OSM
database schema. It is disussed by OSM community in similar way as a
new ideas in Wikipedia.

 OSM has actually its own API which is free to use:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/API_v0.6

It can be used both for creating new tools for editing of OSM as we as
creating new functionalities based on OSM data.




Allow me a stupid question on this thread, but why is the existing OSM-based solution employed by several language versions of Wikivoyage not good enough?
