Hi Andy,
Thanks for the suggestion. Especially for the lakes, adding the wikidata ID for 
the feature would be useful. I'll talk to the team about modifying the workflow 
to add the wikidata ID provided we can correctly identify the right lake.

Regards,
-Jubal

Hi Juba,

That sounds great. Have you considered adding Wikidata IDs as part of your work?

For example, many of the water bodies you're working on will exist in Wikidata; 
and you can create items there for those that do not.

Documentation starts here:

and I'm happy to advise if needed.
