I think that a deeper integration with wikipedia could be a very
interesting thing.  Maybe some links on our wiki aren't correct, but the
possibility to go to a wikipedia article about charging stations, and than
clicking "see them in opentreetmap" which highlights them on our map is my
idea of a perfectly linked information.

Germans are working on Wikidata, a new project that is making Wikipedia a
bit more data oriented. I think we should look at ways to connect that data
to our data.
