Hi,
Much like the discussion about what type of object to tag with place=,
namely working out the conventions we are using, I have a question about
alt_name v. alt_name_1,2,3,etc. tags
I have been adding via merging the tags as they are imported from the
GNS file, so alt_name_1,2,3,etc EVEN IF the existing node already has 1
or more alternative names in an alt_name=alt;alt2;alt3;etc type tag.
This results in the same name being listed twice, but with different tag
key values (alt_name v. alt_name_1,etc).
I certainly don't think it matters much to DB size over all or
searching, but I am curious to know if I should keep doing that or stop
it. Luckily it does not come up very much, maybe 5 - 10 times in the
hundreds of nodes I have merged so far, but I figured I'd ask.
Regards,
Blake Girardot
