No, this is just stupid. A page about a building or about a european route E30 has completely nothing to do with with a pair of coordinates - this is just for pretty display, has no semantical value. There's a 1:1 correspondence between the subject of the page and the route relation or building way in OSM though. > Otherwise, we will see nodes with 120 wikipedia url's (for each > language) and later it will be url's to myEncyclopedia or If you actually take the time to read my mail, you'll notice this is what I'm arguing against. > Don't be surprised if one day, all those url's will be removed by a > clean-up bot. That'll obviously be vandalism. Cheers _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
