Hi I live in Minneapolis and am excited for this change. For Clifford and whoever else is interested, here's an article that has the Dakota pronunciation for Bde Maka Ska and some other area lakes: https://www.mprnews.org/story/2015/10/14/bdemakaska-lake-calhoun Locally there's been an increasing

Names of things are changing ll the time. Here in Alaska, Barrow has been renamed to Utqiagvik, for example. However, I don't think you should use the name_1 tag. There has been endless discussion on this list about the uses of tags having numerical suffixes either with underscores or colons, and

[Tagging] Unofficial name change of "Lake Calhoun" in Minneapolis, Minnesota

Lake Calhoun is the subject of local discussion due to racist associations of the word "Calhoun". I know a name change has been promoted, but I have no further details. The name was recently changed to name=Bde Maka Ska, with name:dak=Mde Maka Ska,

Not all siphons are not entirely tunnels or culverts: https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/329482560 is a siphon, but it still crosses over, not under, US34 and the Big Thompson River. The purpose of the siphon in this case is reduce the length and height of the bridge necessary to support the aquedu

Re: [Tagging] siphon underpass

I am looking into how to tag a frequent feature in my area, i.e. a siphon underpass, known in Italian as "botte a sifone" or "botte sifone" and in French as "pont siphon". This is a non.connecting waterway crossing where the lower waterway passes through a U-shaped siphon. The bottom part of the U
