-1, if it's exclusively population-based. The risk is that the US have tenths of cities and smaller countries - say, dunno, Uganda - get none. It's not a matter of getting the label to look cool. If you are looking for objective data, then tag the population. The definition of "city" and its differences from "town" varies from culture to culture, and from country to country. In the last few days there has been quite some discussion in talk-it about this, and there was consensus that the tagging of cities should somehow convey an idea about the urban texture of the country. > sly Regards, Simone _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
