I don’t oppose this, but I feel it would be time to introduce an additional tag
for localities that states which kind of toponym it is (where it comes from or
what is refers to), e.g
locality=*
Current usage of this tag is practically restricted to 2 values, townland and
subtownland
https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/locality#values
we could introduce values like river_part or waterway_section (I’d prefer the
former because the word river already gives a slight indication about the
importance as opposed to ‘waterway’ which includes ditches).
the wiki discourages locality on a way though:
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag%3Aplace%3Dlocality
Not sure if this should be changed or we should introduce a new tag like
place=river_part (or similar) or waterway=section etc.
Cheers,
Martin
