Just to expand this, a website URL should also only link to a particular branch and most corporate websites have a 'store finder' which provides that link. Certainly the wikipedia link should follow the same convention. The store link if well implemented will provide all of the extra data that some people think should be added directly to the database and the Starbucks finder is a particularly good example! -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
