[Tagging] tagging for graves?

[Jo]

While experimenting a bit with Wikidata, I added some subject:wikidata tags
to tombstones:

http://overpass-turbo.eu/?Q=%3Cquery%20type%3D%22node%22%3E%0A%20%20%3Chas-kv%20k%3D%22subject%3Awikidata%22%20v%3D%22Q336977%22%2F%3E%0A%3C%2Fquery%3E%0A%3Cprint%2F%3E&C=51.1936;3.23812;18
