That is exactly the sort of object I'm talking about :) wikidata links to an image and the Artists page, but the Artists page does not link to the Gate back to the wikidata object. I would expect other data to be added to the notes entry on the Artists page, but https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Tolkien has no way to add the anchor for each object on his Catalogue? Moving forward, every artist's catalogue would be a list on wikidata and managed from that list? Another simple example from the wikidata walk through is the location of the headstone for Douglas Adams burial in Highgate cemetery. wikidata should probably have an object for that with links to Highgate cemetery and OSM could have a complete set of all gravestones on the site, or link to an external copy of that list. -- 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
