[Talk-GB] Addition of Wikipedia links in German!

[Robert Norris]

Seeing these edits:

http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Longbow4u/edits

http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/13577963

to add a tags such as "wikipedia = de:Portsmouth"

One can't help but wonder what the point of such tags are (an indeed website), as any intelligent web search based on the name of the object (and +wikipedia) and maybe UK or the county will usually takes to one the web site (or wikipedia) of that item and probably in the right language too...

(even if I often tag POIs with websites myself...)

This sort of automatic search linking would be much web 2.0, than the pile of URL related values in the DB.
