I agree that they don't belong in OSM. Some of these sites will function as means of contact, but I would tend towards only putting phone number, website, email, and similar established means in OSM. We already get rookie flacks/marketers cramming ad copy gibberish into description=*, and I feel like Yelp/Foursquare/etc reviews are just more of the same. -- Shawn K.
