Sett inn af BharataHS 22. september 2017 á English.Excited to be attending and presenting at the State of the Asia - 2017 conference for the first time at Nepal. I will be talking on Sunday (24th September) about how we are building multilingual map of the world by linking OpenStreetMap with Wikidata - an amazing open data project by Wikimedia foundation. If you are interested about this, attend the talk in Banyan hall at 11:15 AM on Sunday, 24th.

The Arabic map doesn’t really work for me: In place of the labels I see kind of rectangular blobs, like the letters are covered by blocky rectangles that cover the area of the letter. So I can see what area would be covered by the label but I can not read it. I’m using Firefox 55.0.3_1,1 on FreeBSD 11.1. Do others have the same problem?

Could you explain the reasons for using Wikidata and not a solution inside OSM?
