And I agree, if we leave the proposal at this, that meana a lot of tags. So first, we can ignore the big peninsulas like Europe. I only used that for the example. Second, for big peninsulas we can use only one unifying tag like peninsula:1:wikidata=Q12837 <http://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q12837> and forget about names. Names can be added in Wikidata. Janko
