boundary=administrative can't be "IRRESPECTIVE OF WIDE INTERNATIONAL RECOGNITION" by definition. Please check it on OSM wiki : "An administrative boundary. Subdivisions of areas/territories/jurisdictions

Re: [OSM-talk] OSMF makes a political decision where should be a technical solution?

Good points, Victor! Thanks for sharing your opinion. You've just demonstrated how DWG could have started the discussion. Current discussion (not only this topic but all the messages on OSM lists.*, OSM forum, OSM diaries, Twitter etc) raises the question about the DWG role in OSM. While expected

Re: [Talk-GB] City names translation

Lester, I don't agree that ukrainian or other-language place names is secondary information. We should not extract this information to external data source. Why don't you say Let's remove population-tag. Values are changing, let's integrate OSM with some service like

Re: [Talk-GB] City names translation

Lester, you are right. I miss understood you previous message. Do you want OSM data model to be changed? http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/File:RailsPortModels.png It has very valuable feature: it is flexible for data of absolutely any kind. Extracting names to separate table will make it less

Re: [Talk-GB] City names translation

Not, it is not a job for external services. It is much better to use single service(OSM) rather than multiple(OSM+Wikidata). OpenStreetMap supports multiple names - let's use it. If you don't like someone use some tags - just ignore those tags. 2014-08-04 20:24 GMT+03:00 Andy Mabbett

Re: [Talk-GB] City names translation

Andy, I agree that Berlin doesn't need hundreds of name:**, but not because they are similar. Just because 80% will never be used. name:** should be entered by native speakers, not imported by Kolossos. Bury St Edmunds needs [name:uk=Бері-Сент-Едмендс]. Just assume Ukrainian person reading

Re: [Talk-GB] City names translation

I assert that it is much better to use a single service, because it is easier to add 100 osm-tags than implement communication with external data sources. Nominatim use osm-data, it should not(and I hope will never) use any other data from Wikidata or other projects. Mapnik allows to process .osm

Re: [Talk-GB] City names translation

Why do you call it poor transliteration? Actually Бері-Сент-Едмендс is the result of transcription(ˈbɛrɪ sənt ˈɛdməndz) conversion, additionally united by hyphens according to general city spelling. This city name *is used* in ukrainian texts in wikipedia, airline tickets web-sites, as tourist
