yes, I'd suggest that you discuss this and if you can reach consensus, change the docu to addr:block_number (if the usage is the same, you should ask the Philippine comunity about this). There are only ~200 addr:blocknumber but ~5000 addr:block_number currently in the database. Also blocknumber does not seem to be English, but block number seems to be (according to a google search). If the usage / definition is not the same, you should still change the tag, because if 2 tags are so similar, it will create a lot of confusion. cheers, Martin
