Hi,

1. If it makes things easier for people, then go for it.

2. I add the wikipedia tag to a variety of objects, not just geographical 
entities. Why won't these be converted?

3. There are some features where the name of the Wikipedia entry has changed, 
e.g. https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/3079181210/history and 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col%C3%A1iste_Moibh%C3%AD - I have no 
recollection of adding the OSM entry originally. :)

4. Are there actually only about 40 entries to be changed?

http://stat.latlon.org/ie/latest/tags-w.html

  *   wikidata 3904
  *   wikimedia_commons 3
  *   wikipedia 1633
  *   wikipedia:de 1
  *   wikipedia:en 38
  *   wikipedia:fi 1
  *   wikipedia_1 1

5. Is there a big discrepancy between the number of wikidata (3904) and 
wikimedia (1633) objects? Is this an issue?

Colm
