That's a typeo, I meant shouldn't. I'm sure some people would argue we

As mentioned semi colon has issues with URLs. It may also be worth
noting that a OSM value can only have 254 chars in it, a limit that
would get hit quickly with a few URLs.
I've thought about this before, I think we need 1 URL to point to
