Motivation

This national database (Q47471262) includes entries for all kinds of geographical objects in Estonia. I think there are currently roughly 10k items where this could be used. It'd be most useful for natural objects like islands, bogs, capes etc. that often have no other external identifiers at the moment, and where unique value constraint makes it easier to check duplicate items. 2001:7D0:81F7:B580:3CF3:69E9:5899:BD5B 10:23, 3 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion

Support It contains 200K place names, and can be downloaded in CSV format. Perhaps could be imported in WD. --Gerwoman (talk) 19:26, 3 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
