Stuart which routing service did you test?

This being OSM there are at least 4 different services you could use (based on different routing engines with slightly different characteristics).

Simon

PS: as a tendency I would have suggested routing.openstreetmap.de which uses OSRM as the engine, but for example https://maps.openrouteservice.org/directions?n1=49.409445&n2=8.692953&n3=13&b=0&k1=en-US&k2=km&s has some specialist routing options that others don't have.

Hi Stefan,

1) I have taken a brief look at the OSM directions and as much as I want to switch, I don't find it sufficiently attractive.  For now, I will not make the change, but will retain the OSM alternative as well as a more palatable long-term solution of using the mapbox direction api for directions on the list of to do items. 

3) Would it be possible to create a bot or a small script to find all OSM "fountain" nodes tagged either as 1) "amenity = drinking_water" or 2) "amenity = fountain & drinking_water = yes" which have a Wikidata Item with similar characteristics and a photo.  

What would be the acceptable practice for linking these photos back to OSM ? How could we check to make sure that the photo we are adding is actually the correct one, without going in person?Wikidata is great, but I have an opinion regarding the quality of data. 

Best regards,

Stuart

Hi Stuart

I had two inputs:
First, I'm proposing that you replace the link behind "Itinerary" in
the info box from Google to OSM directions [1]...
Second, I've seen that the translation to German [2] still is
incomplete and I'm offering to you and Hubert, to help out tomorrow
(with my interns) just in case you need this help.

:Stefan

P.S. In [3] I've written three open source "bots" which generate lists
of of (1) missing photos in commons, (2) missing Wikidata entries in
OSM, and (3) missing OSM objects compared to Wikidata.
