[Talk-gb-westmidlands] Wikidata tags for the West Midlands available as OSM XML

Hi, For a while now I've been working on an automated system to match OSM entities with Wikidata items. I've built something that will let you search for a place and find all Wikidata items in that location with a matching OSM entity. In the past there was interest from the West Midlands mapping

Re: [Talk-GB] OSM with Wikidata: now covers UK and Ireland

I've uploaded my first changeset - Places of worship in Birmingham. https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/37766888 This is a modification to 10 ways and one relation. The relation is a multipolygon representing Birmingham Oratory. The uploader has put the wikidata tag on the relation, which

Good question. OSM editors and viewers could be changed to integrate more closely with Wikidata. An OSM editor could suggest to the mapper a matching Wikidata item to tag. We could have the editor automatically look up the label from the Wikidata item in the preferred language of the person

Re: [Talk-GB] OSM with Wikidata: now covers UK and Ireland

The category names are from Wikipedia. I start with the "Airports by country" category and just grab the subcategories for United Kingdom and Ireland. In a previous version I had code to strip the ' by country' from the end. I'll try and restore it to reduce the confusion. -- Edward. Colin Smale
