Motivation

[edit]

The Bulgarian Ministry of Regional Development and Public Works (Q12286838) regularly publishes a complete National database of localisation units of Bulgaria (Q124040693) listing all the localisations units in the country. It consists mostly of street names.

The identifier is a non unique 5 digit code, so it should always be coupled with the BG EKATTE place ID (P3990) of the parent territorial entity in order to ensure uniqueness. In the source data the two are paired. We are contemplating building a 10 digit code by systematically concatenating the two and will appreciate discussing this option here.

Having this identifier in Wikidata will reinforce a data round tripping effort between the Bulgarian OpenStreetMap (Q936) and Wikipedia communities and ensure better correspondence of street level geographical data in Bulgaria (Q219)
