</div>I think it's better to just link to the TripAdvisor page. It's their<br>
data and they are probably protecting it. Re-releasing it under ODbL<br>
(yes I am ahead of the times) may not even be legally acceptable.<br>
Same goes for all these ratings. Exception is if you can survey it (is<br>
there a plaque / sign?). And have surveyed it, for that matter.<br>
<br>
Advantage of just linking to the source is that it's in the best<br>
tradition of linked data, and we don't have to keep it current if a<br>
three star chef leaves a paper towel in the soup that he serves to the<br>
Michelin people when they come to re-assess.<br>
<br></blockquote><div><br>Even linking is of questionable use. OSM should be turned into a replication of the whole info available in the internet. soon we will have a single POI with a link to Wikipedia, Michelin, Zagat, Facebook, their own native homepage, Tripadvisor, Google+, Linkedin, Twitter ...<br>
where will it end? <br>And what is the advantage of having this in OSM. If I am interested I will definitely not rely on osm data but go directly to these 3rd party services<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
