I agree that adding `wikipedia` or `wikidata` to each location is wrong..
But using `operator:wikidata`/`operator:wikipedia` (and or 
`brand:wikidata`/`brand:wikipedia`) should be ok, even preferred.. 

This is the approach I’m taking with 
https://github.com/osmlab/name-suggestion-index 
<https://github.com/osmlab/name-suggestion-index>
which is the project that seeds the preset list for iD with common brand names

Thanks,
Bryan
