name= and Wikidata disprepancy
How come that the name cannot be set correctly if there is a wikidata link? I find numerous examples with names that cannot be set properly in the map.
Almost all have an english language wikidata whereas the correct name is in in some other language. In such cases the english name / wikidata entry always take preference.
My examples are for place names in Greenland where the are two officially approved names, an inuit one and a danish. Nevertheless the unofficial english which occur in nwikidata take preference.
