Re: [Tagging] Commons: mixed purposes
That would be my preference, but there has been some resistance to Wikidata tags, from people who prefer human-readable tag values; so I tend to use one of each. I think that would be better addressed by various tools grabbing the name for the Wikidata ID and then displaying it. Otherwise we will soon even have a 4th Wikimedia entry as people start to add Wikivoyage tags as they also make a lot of sense for maps, which are often used for tourism. Even Wikisource might sometimes make sense. Or we even see artist:wikiquote=*... __ openstreetmap.org/user/AndiG88 wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:AndiG88 ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging

[Tagging] Commons: mixed purposes
It seems that people are using "commons=" for two different purposes: http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/commons#values physical things that are freely available for common usage; like bicycle pumps and community gardens, but also links to Wikimedia Commons. How should we resolve this? What should we sue to link to Wikimedia commons categories like: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:St_Paul,_Birmingham I've previously used Wikimedia_Commons=, but that's verbose; and I seem to be alone in doing so. -- Andy Mabbett @pigsonthewing http://pigsonthewing.org.uk ___ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
