Margie,

I don't know what is available to you in Potlatch when you press B. (Do you have any choice ?)

If there is no ambiguity (because only the World Bank's has covered the area where you are working on, not Google's), I guess you can use this in this case. (Hoping it'll get fixed in the backend later) Especially as the World Bank has made their data public domain, they probably would not mind such a remotely possible mis-sourcing.

Note that I cannot advise on OSM policy here. (Which seems to be reflected in the wiki).

I think that the other way around (tagging as WB's a G's source) would very clearly be against OSM policy, since Google has not made their data public domain, but given OSM permission to use for tracing.


Short answer : Yes.


(Otherwise use Manual Tagging.)

sorry, I don't understand what you mean.

Is pressing B (to make source=http://filename-like-google-201001-17..jpg) okay? It's so easy, that it's my strong preference. (I don't have paste problems in potlatch.)
