Thanks for pointing at this, I have amended this sentence to make more sense, please check: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Key%3Aurl&diff=1060215&oldid=997125 > > As far as I understood, although it might make sense to tag an URL in some > cases, the meaning of this key is too generic, making it hard to be used by > tools. > Therefore it's better to use another key that better indicates the meaning > or relation of the URL, such as website=*, wikipedia=* and so on (not sure > if there are others). +1, where one of these more specific tags can be applied, it is better to use them, for the rest url will still remain a valid tag. cheers, Martin
