image/wikimedia_commons on Stolpersteine in Braunschweig

There are 413 Stolpersteine in Braunschweig that are recorded on OSM. A large part of them have both image and wikimedia_commons, where both keys have the same value, namely the Wikimedia Commons file name. This causes two problems:

1. image without https:///http:// is wrong; iD marks this as an error, among others.
2. Data duplication (duh)

try it yourself in overpass-turbo

[out:json][timeout:25];
{{geocodeArea:Braunschweig}}->.searchArea;
nwr["memorial"="stolperstein"]["image"]["wikimedia_commons"](if: t["image"] == t["wikimedia_commons"])(area.searchArea);
out geom;

Algorithm

• Edits will be made only in Braunschweig; i.e. in the area defined by the bounds of 62531 62531 at the time of the edit.
• Only objects with memorial=stolperstein will be considered

Depending on the tags, the following edits will be made:

• neither image nor wikimedia_commons — left as-is
• only image with a valid URL — left as-is
• only wikimedia_commons with a value starting with file: — left as-is
• both image and wikimedia_commons, where both values are different and valid (as per above definitions) — left as-is
• both image and wikimedia_commons, where both values are different, but one is invalid — manual edit
• both image and wikimedia_commons, where both have the same value, but it's not a valid Wikimedia Commons file ref — manual edit
• both image and wikimedia_commons, where both have the same Wikimedia Commons ref as value — automated edit removing image and keeping wikimedia_commons

The change will be done once, as I expect further mistakes of this kind to be reported by iD and other validators.

Discussion / Opt-out

The edit will be discussed in Braunschweig OSM Matrix chat:   #osm:stratum0.org. Submit your opt-out requests there or directly to me via channels mentioned above.
