Important thing to note is that while nothing makes you obligated to map tracks in some area, recommendations/guidelines like this are not allowing you to delete existing objects mapped by someone else. 25 Oct 2020, 07:31 by mapslit...@gmail.com: > Hi Phil, thanks for drafting this, it’s great

In case of name where there is a language specific tag, repeating name tag in language specific tag is useful, welcome and a good idea. I even run into a case where it was needed to render map as expected(Polish labels, with fallback to English ones) - I am unable to comment on
