## Description

The OpenStreetMap Human-readable Wikidata extension enhances the browsing experience on openstreetmap.org by converting cryptic Wikidata QID tags into clear, human-readable information. Any map object tagged with a Wikidata QID or any *:wikidata tag is automatically annotated with descriptive details, helping users quickly identify what each object represents without needing to cross-reference separately.

By integrating this plugin, users benefit from immediate contextual understanding of geographic features, landmarks, or entities tagged with Wikidata codes, making openstreetmap data more accessible and user-friendly for map editors, researchers, and casual visitors alike.
