I'm surprised Wikidata is different to Wikipedia. I thought the former was derived from the latter.
(btw The 7,172,036 figure isn't the latest data in Wikidata)

    All tags can get filled with useless data.

    Good use of tag:
    http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/107775
    <http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/107775>




btw, there seem to be some less useful tags also on this node, at least there's a slight redundancy and these could eventually be pulled from wikidata (or determined spatially in the first case) when needed: is_in:country <http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:is%20in:country?uselang=en-US> United Kingdom

is_in:country_code <http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:is%20in:country%20code?uselang=en-US> GB

is_in:iso_3166_2 GB-ENG


On the other hand I have noticed that wikidata has this population: 7,172,036 while osm has 8.416.535, for wikidata the most recent figure is from 2001 so ours is likely more recent and relying completely on wikidata for some tags seems still a bit too early.

Cheers,
Martin
