Thanks, that was interesting. As you find data problems, are the fixes
fed back into Wikidata?
The top entry here caught my eye:
https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/brand%3Awikipedia#values
I.e. 5629 Japanese 7-11 stores have a link. Apparently there are 20,392
7-11s in Japan, so that represents about 27%.
Ministop was the 2nd Japanese entry in the list, but has only 461 out of
their 4902 stores linked, so just under 10%.
(Family Mart has 17,400 (zero tagged); Lawson has 14,000 (127 tagged).)
That difference suggests it is not just users putting in their local
store, but something more systematic? Was it done by the 7-11 company?

P.S.
https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/brand%3Awikidata#values
has 5788 for Q259340 (i.e. 7-11); the others are a 100 or US stores.
OpenStreetMap Started linking company data with
wikidata (
https://github.com/osmlab/name-suggestion-index ) (
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:brand:wikidata ) current
status:
https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/brand:wikidata ( ~
60000 objects ) the project is still in its early stages, Lot of
issues & data modeling problems.
