Hello,

see TagInfo:
http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/?key=image

There are not 322. There are 12 162...

photo = 321
image:flickr = 3
flickr = 57
image = 12162
wikipedia:image = 24
wetap:photo = 108
source:image=Yahoo 1701
FG:photo = 533

I only use image. For an image URL or the name of an image on Wikimedia
Commons (example "File:Dresden collage.jpg").

More Informations see in Wiki in German:
