[Posted to Talk + Tagging]: Currently the section "Non proposed features" in the OSM wiki page "Proposal_process" mentions that new tags should not be added to "Map_Features" without discussion. Some users also believe that new tags should not be documented under the feature wiki space with "Key:N

I believe there are some (limited) contexts in which proposed routes can and should be added to OSM. For example, in the USA, we have bicycle routes in our numbered national bicycle route network (USBRS, see https://wiki.osm.org/wiki/United_States_Bicycle_Route_System, tens-of-thousands of km)

I was doing a query for all city and towns before doing a query of all "capital=yes" in this set. This was only the result of the interserction that was sent to the output. I didn't really knew how to "OR" the filters. Now I see, and your solution looks better :) On 14/08/2019 14:51, Dave F via t

Hi Dave and others, thanks so far for your comments. As I understood myself so far, the hiking routes in question are local hiking routes which fulfil the "quality standards" of the nature park. They are (mostly) marked already and maintained by local volunteers/municipalities or not maintained

You can use Sophox to pull this type of information, possibly just not all at once. Here's a query that will give you all first level country sub-divisions (Canada in this case), as well as each province's Captial, Flag image, and ISO codes. https://tinyurl.com/y6jowy8v (this query was modified
