[OSM-talk] Wiki templates and DataItems

[François Lacombe]

Hi all,

It's been a while we use to complete templates KeyDescription and
ValueDescription on wikipages which are then crawled by a bot completing
DataItems
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Data_items

According to topics like : https://github.com/taginfo/taginfo/issues/263
and last SOTM discussions, there is still a lack of consensus about
DataItems usage.

Where are we going now?
Is there something else than consensus, TagInfo and mainstream editors
connectors missing preventing us to move?

I find DataItems really relevant to tackle the translation challenge, just
like WIkipedia did with WikiData.
Editors and QA could take a great advantage to get data from standard
properties instead of parsing wikicode, couldn't you?

All the best

François
