That seems reasonable. > Though, if we are lucky this mistake was added by an undiscussed > automated edit and may be simply reverted. I do not consider the loss of potentially-useful data to be "lucky". > I am running monitoring of blatant misuses of Wikipedia tags. [list of examples] It would seem reasonable to have a bot routinely convert those to brand:wikipedia tags, with (say) a white-list for HQ objects. We could also suggest that tools (JOSM, ID, etc) issue a warning when such values are added, ether based on matching items in a list, for retching the item's "insatnce of" value from Wikidata. > But for some reason people complain less if wikipedia tag is turned > into brand:wikipedia rather than simply removed so usually I just turn > invalid wikipedia links to company page into brand:wikipedia tags > (and do the same with wikidata tags). Again, that seems like the reasonable and sensible approach.

Again, that is throwing away useful data, where the intent of the person adding it can be deduced with a very high degree of certainty. > Overall, there are about 30 000 blatantly incorrect wikipedia tags Though those need to be addresses, 30K out of over 1 million cases is less than 3%. And programmatically addressing the commonest cases (such as those discussed above) will reduce the number considerably. -- Andy Mabbett @pigsonthewing http://pigsonthewing.org.uk _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
