Also bringing discussion out here from Discord. An anonymous user is hitting Notes with quite a few entries yesterday to say that remote homesteads are incorrectly tagged as hamlets eg https://www.openstreetmap.org/note/3145380, but looking at this particular place https://www.openstreetmap.org/edit?node=1829712552#map=17/-21.96106/148.80882, I'd say that "hamlet" was probably correct in that there could well be a couple of families living there?
Other suggestions that have been made are place=isolated_dwelling or place=farm. Bit of a grey area, I guess? Isolated-dwelling says 1-2 families only, hamlet says 100-200 people, while place=farm says "a family of farmers". Guess it really depends on the particular property involved, which would require detailed local knowledge? Thoughts? Thanks Graeme
