Yes! Ignore any notion of a four-part location. It's an American thing and
really only works for them. Trying to force naming conventions used in other
countries onto this four-part thing is a disaster. At the same throw the
GeoDatabase away - it's too modern for most non-USA places.
Use what is appropriate to *you* and the *locality* of the place being named.
