wikidata provides a section which documents a range of LINKS which identify the same object on other databases. It would be nice if there was a stable identity on OSM that would populate an entry in THAT list. This would then allow cross checking of any link. At some point it might be nice to eliminate all of the unnecessary links like this in OSM if wikidata or somenewopesourcedata become a more reliable source of such data. Just a single link to a substantial set of additional data. So ... where does 'brand:' come from? Should this not simply be 'link:'? -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
