Comment from Nakaner
Hi beweta,
please do not copy names from Wikipedia, Wikidata or any other website which can be seen as a register or database of names ("database" not to be interpreted literally as IT folks would do).
Reasons:
1. Wikipedia is licensed under the terms of CC-BY-SA which is not compatible with the OSM license.
2. Wikipedia and Wikidata does not care that much for copyright than we do. They don't see Wikipedia as a database and therefore ignore database rights. However, OpenStreetMap is a database. In addition, they claim that the Wikimedia Foundation, the operator of the various Wikipedias in all the languages, is located in the U.S. where these rights do not exist. However, the OSMF is located in a country where the EU Database Directive applies (and will apply). The OSMF wants that its database is usable everywhere and therefore avoids anything which can be illegal.
That's why other users or the DWG might feel the need to remove your additions of names.
If you think that this comment is not appropriate, threatening or something else, don't hestiate to file a complaint at data@osmfoundation.org
Best regards
Michael
