<br>
Shouldn't OSM use Wikipedia URLs as UUIDs where applicable rather than Wikipedia referring to database identifiers? (The answer is a clear 'yes' from my side.)<br>
In fact there are the (wikipedia, *) tags - but not sure how good the quality is - what can be seen on a first glance is, that people mix URLs and article names, and also encoding.<br><br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>
<br></div><div><br></div><div style>there are also other tags to point from certain OSM attributes to wikipedia, e.g. <a href="http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/wikipedia%3Aoperator">http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/wikipedia%3Aoperator</a> and <a href="http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/operator%3Awikipedia">http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/operator%3Awikipedia</a></div>
<div style>but isn't this thread about pointing from outside to osm?</div><div style><br></div><div style>cheers,</div><div style>Martin</div></div>
