Changeset: 128188221
remove operator:wikipedia where operator:wikidata is already tagged (standard operator=* tag is already human readable so tag is redundant)

Hello,
I came across this in the context of https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/1046339418/history , and was wondering how this changeset was an improvement?
I personally wouldn't have added "operator:wikipedia" to this way in the first place, but I don't see how removing it improves things in any way?
I spotted it because unfortunately whoever added the data in the first place didn't sanity check it - https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/1046339418/history (and lots of others in that import) are wrong because of an off by one error in the source data. I'd have expected the importer to have spotted it when they did their edit, and I'd have expect you to have spotted it here too!
Best Regards,

Andy, when the de-bugger is turned on for iD it automatically suggests operator:wikidata=* and some other corrections (capitalisation, proper name, etc.) tags automatically. Previously, it was also suggesting operator:wikipedia=* Adopting those suggestions was usually the right thing to do.
However, operator:wikipedia=* is problematic, as it is language dependent. So, for the Superdry clothing brand or Nissan cars, it was suggesting the Japanese-language wikipedia pages, even if the OSM object was in the UK or Ireland.
Adding operator:wikipedia=* was discontinued. Keeping operator:wikipedia=* was slightly untidy, hence the changes by the user endim8.
A few years ago, for some reason (I presume there was a genuine reason) wikipedia:[Language code]=[Topic] was changed to wikipedia=[Language code]:[Topic] If that change hadn't happened, the knock-on changes here wouldn't have needed to happen.
