Motivation[edit]

museum-digital (https://www.museum-digital.de/) is a increasingly popular platform for museums to document and present their collections. There are currently more than 680k objects from 900 museums in 6k collections distributed over several distinct (regional or thematic) instances. Most named entities are controlled by means of a series of vocabularies. One of them, covering place names, is referred to by museum-digital place ID (P9957). MD tags provides a curated list of keyword used in the descriptions of objects on Museum-Digital. Keywords are continuously reconciled with other relevant authority files. Many concepts, however, are very domain-specific, so that the museum-digital tag is the only authority file to cover these. This would make this property especially useful.
