Hi Martin,

you can store an image link on the OpenStreetMap object, this is also
usable to find the object after someone has copied the tags to another
object (e.g. node-> way/relation transformations), it will break if both,
the image changes and the OpenStreetMap id changes. Mappers might also
refrain from transferring the tags to e.g. a building if the image
explicitly refers to just something inside the building and is not suitable
for the whole building.

>>>>Agree this is a good solution ... and if I can automate a way to bulk
move the images to wikimedia commons, after manual curation, and add an
image link to the photo in the osm object that would be best.
