Do people tend to maintain them? Because website=u.osm.org/c9f0f516-7da2-4cf0-a455-b09f90792c7d would work equally well and wouldn't require any new tags. I don't think the uuid tags would be treated perfectly. But they do seem like they'd be better than nothing, even if only some portion of the mappers maintain them. Also, I'm one of those mappers that will sometimes delete tags I don't know. But not if they're given an objective explanation in the wiki. The only thing I'm really afraid of is that these tags would violate what some people seem to believe is a rule - the supposed "map only what's on the ground" rule. Do the website=* and wikipedia=* tags violate this rule? Anthony
