We are translating Chennai Bus Stop names now.
Will share the results once they are completed.

Will use name:ta= when syncing with OSM.

Thanks.

This is such an awesome project and love how easy it is to translate! Such
an easy to use mobile interface is a great contribution to localize the
world map [1].

Before getting a bot account, it would be great to demonstrate that the
quality of translations sourced by this method is of sufficiently high
quality. That would greatly help build a case for an automated upload
system.


The name:* tags in OSM are for names in different languages, not for

Paul, these are translations and not transliterations[2]. Is that what you
were asking?

Later is we want.

Our goal is to display all the street names, village,city names, POI
in Tamil language.

we export the interested strings from OSM.
using a telegram bot, contributors can see a string in english and
types in tamil name.

As we can not get the user's OSM credentials as text in telegramBot,
we need  a bot account to update OSM with  the tamil names to all the
relevant english names that volunteers have translated.

Is this process is fine?

Share your thoughts.

2017-10-17 Thread Paul Norman 
Are you generating strings for the software which runs 
openstreetmap.org, or translating place names in OpenStreetMap data? If 
the latter, you shouldn't upload them. The name:* tags in OSM are for 
names in different languages, not for translations of names to different 
languages.

Once the strings got translated by volunteers, hope we can use a bot 
account to upload the works.


How to apply and get a bot account for OSM?

Thanks.
