[Talk-GB] Tagging references to web-enabled databases (war memorials & others)

[Andy Mabbett]

As I've just mentioned in another thread, the UK National Inventory of
War Memorials <http://www.ukniwm.org.uk/>, based at the Imperial War
Museum, is creating a comprehensive archive of all war memorials in
the United Kingdom. They have records for over 60,000 of the estimated
100,000 war memorials in the UK. These range from window and brass
plaques to church organs, obelisks an crosses, and buildings. An
example of the latter is the entry for Birmingham's Hall of Memory:
<http://www.ukniwm.org.uk/server/show/conMemorial.2049>.

How should I tag that?

Generally speaking, is it best to use the full URL;

   UKNIWM_URL = http://www.ukniwm.org.uk/server/show/conMemorial.2049

 or the unique ID part:

   UKNIWM_ID = 2049

and why?
