Hello,<br>I'm possibly over-keen for some programming to do, but for the page <a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Talk:Map_Features" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Talk:Map_Features
</a> would it be useful to have the key,possible values,comments stored in a database and then shown on the page? Dunno if it would be useful?<br>The key's own page (ie [[Key:highway]] could be automatically generated from the same data, meaning their would be less copy pasting of data, and less chance of errors?
<br><br>To (for example) add a new key, you'd see a form requesting the key name and its possible values and comments etc.<br><br>If your interested, to see an example of data being shown in a wiki page but pulled from a database, there is a event manager example
<br><a href="<a href="http://www.umsu.manchester.ac.uk/wikispectus/index.php/Special:EditEvents/date%3D20051003%26view%3Dweek%26type%3Dall" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">http://www.umsu.manchester.ac.uk/wikispectus/index.php/Special:EditEvents/date%3D20051003%26view%3Dweek%26type%3Dall
</a>"> here</a>. (log in with username test, password test). Click on the 'e' by any event and you can see how it can be edited. (Please don't click x or d).<br>This code has a history of all changes, and changes are revertable just like in the wiki system.
<br><br>Oh, the other reason I thought of it was that it would mean showing different languages & translating them might be easier.<br>Also posted it on <a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Talk:Map_Features#Alternate_system" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">
