I recently stumbled upon the tag wikimedia_commons see
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:wikimedia_commons
Its definition is: "links to related Wikimedia Commons' media of the
feature "
But, the only 2 examples contain no links (as in URL-links but instead
file- and category names):
wikimedia_commons=File:Bicycle crossing, Poland, Kraków, Josepha
Conrada.JPG
wikimedia_commons=Category:St Paul, Birmingham
I see in the database that a lot of image= tags contains direct urls to
Wikimedia Commons.
I suggest we discuss changing the definition to:"File- or category name
to related Wikimedia Commons' media of the feature "
Furthermore I would like to hear if anyone have any problems with mass
re-tagging of all commons URLs in image and wikimedia_commons tags to
the above format. I will keep the changesets per country or smaller.
There are currently ~58062 image= tags containing "wikimedia":

There are currently 37 wikimedia_commons tags that start with "http".

See also the discussion of introducing these formatting restraints in
the JOSM validator:

PS: IMO it is a good idea to clean this up to get an idea of how many of
our features have some kind (and what kind) of image linked to them. I
would like to see statistics about this that also tells me whether the
wikidata item of some OSM feature has an image P18 property.
PPS: I also suggested that we start rendering images on feature pages on
openstreetmap.org, see
