[Tagging] patron saints

[Jo]

I think that when it gets really that complex, it's best to create a
wikidata item for the shrine (and probably a Wikpedia page as well, I guess
at least on ja.WP they are noteworthy enough to deserve a page), then
simply refer to that using the wikidata tag itself.

and maybe a comma delimited list of wikidata Q-refs in the
dedication:wikidata tag, for people who want to rely on only OSM data for
statistics purposes.
