Would this be restricted to just names? I can imagine a world where no information about businesses is stored in OSM. OSM has a geometry and a wikidata link. Wikidata says what kind of business it is, what its name is, what its contact info it, what its opening hours are, etc. That would be a very different world from the one we live in. In lieu of listing them all out, I will just say I can see many benefits to living in that world, and many benefits to what we have now. Is that a goal of this integration? I've been thinking about this for a while, so I have a lot of questions based on the answer... --Andrew _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk What I'm sure about is that Wikidata isn't the place for opening hours of shops and businesses. The question is, should we build our own OSMData or OpenPOIData that has that information, or is OSM good enough. Janko
