Pipeline
- Fetch every diplomatic-mission class from Wikidata in batches (embassies, consulates, high commissions, nunciatures, permanent missions…).
- Pull all
office=diplomaticobjects from OpenStreetMap; link by Wikidata ID, then by pair + distance; de-duplicate. - Drop decommissioned missions, flag temporarily closed ones, mark inferred cities and approximate coordinates explicitly.
- Score every record 0–100 for completeness and show its last-edit date — no silent “updated today” stamps.
- Corrections from travellers and embassies are reviewed and pushed back upstream, so the open commons improves too.
