Hi gekapes, please follow the OSM wiki (wikipedia="de:Name", not "http..").
Details: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/DE:Key:wikipedia
Danke, Alex -
Comment from Nakaner
Hi gekapes,
Wikipedia is no source you are allowed to use for OpenStreetMap because it is licensed under CC-BY-SA (incompatible with OSM Contributor Terms you agreed to) and because Wikipedia contributors don't care about the copyright on databases while OSM does. That's why I deleted the names you added in this changeset.
Best regards
Michael
PS I just added obvious notes to the page "Collaboration with Wikipedia" at the OSM Wiki.

Hi Michael,
which source is allowed to take translations of names? Is own translation allowed?

Comment from Aleks-Berlin
Hi Gekapes, you can use all common knowledge information, personal survey, etc.
If you know something without wikipedia (and its also in wikidia written), you can of course use this information for OSM. But you cannot take wikipedia as source (and write source=wikipedia). If you translate it (without google, wikipedia, etc), then you can do this. Many regards, Alex
