This is a maze, with significant differences between Wikipedia articles in different languages alone, and in comparison with wikidata, and the attached semantics in wikidata. Almost any time you look at an wikidata item there are issues and content level contradictions. Yes, most of this is to be found in WP as well, but the difference is that an article is not machine readable, and a human will more likely know how to interpret the information. cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
