You have to follow a lot of links and definitions and there are many dependencies, everything is connected: if the meaning of a property is modified this will actually modify a huge lot of objects that use this property. E.g. place in osm is orthogonal to administrative entities, in wikidata it is not. Add a property/"instance of" to the wikidata town object like "administrative territorial entity" and you changed all towns. cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
