if the data is "mastered elsewhere", don't import it into OSM.
You suggest to put 4 tags as reference to the external source:
source=osmfetch:xxx
source:pkey=yyy
source:licence=llll
source:website=http://zzz
even if you can't be convinced to put this information in the
changeset (which would be preferable as Frederik told you as well),
please consider using just one tag. E.g. source:license is not
important once the data is in OSM: all OSM data is distributed under
the same license. Source:website is information that doesn't belong to
the dataset IMHO, it would be better put (together with the license
information) on a wiki page.
cheers,
Martin
