I think first there needs to be a place to move them to. OSM has come a long way since I first proposed Wikiteer, which was meant to be a combination of items of local interest which were deleted as non-notable plus the GIS support structure to map them. Nowadays I'm comfortable letting OSM manage the GIS/mapping aspect and sticking to just the description pages (phone numbers, addresses, websites, operating hours, maybe even some topic specific info like menus or admission prices or show schedules). Maybe it's finally time to reintroduce the idea. But I'm going to let someone else deal with the bureaucracy. _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
