Links to the GeoNames records
Every JudaicaLink record that refers to a GeoNames entry, linked to the JudaicaLink record of the current entry in the dataset geonames.
The links rely on the identity statements our datasets and the other authority datasets make, as each catalogue entry
declares them (decision 0032); the dataset geonames says how GeoNames is made. A reference to a deprecated
identifier, or to one the dataset geonames does not have, is left out; so are the links of a dataset whose measured
link quality is below the threshold, and links between a person, a work and a place. These links are what joins the
records of different datasets on the entity pages (decision 0029).
