This is the last step!

3. Wikidata Tags to OpenStreetMap

Now that you have found or created a new wikidata tag for the person behind the street name, the last step is to add the wikidata tag to OpenStreetMap. We promise, it's not hard!

Let's use the example of Marthe Sigart again

We just created a Wikidata Tag for her: Q104733227.

Step 1: Search the street in OpenStreetMap

Step 2: Click on editing (make sure you are logged in on OSM)

Step 3: Click on the + below attributes and add name:etymology:wikidata

Add the Q!

Step 4: Save (top right of your screen), add a comment ("add wikidata tag) and publish!

Step 5: Go back to OpenStreetMap. Yes, your wikidata tag is there!

!!!Attention!!! On OpenStreetMap, some streets are published in different sections. Therefore, you will need to do this action the amount of time than the amounts of sections.

When all the wikidata tags have been added to OpenStreetMap, ask your technical lead to run the script to update the platform. This is it, you are done! Bravo! 👏👏👏

EqualStreetNames is a true piece of art!
