Ik lees ook :
These municipalities should have the official translated names under name:nl <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:name:nl>=*, name:fr <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:name:fr>=* and name:de <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:name:de>=* (depending on which language facilities are offered), the name <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:name>=* tag should contain only the official name in the primary language. For the moment, the municipalities bordering Brussels also follow the naming schema used in Brussels (with both languages in the name tag), while the other municipalities have a tendency to only include a single language in the name tag. Do not delete translated data by following this rule. If a good translation exists in a dutch municipality in french, do not remove it. We only care for correct data, as much as possible without being intrusive in any way. Ook de dubbele standaard voor de taalfacileitgemeenten rond Brussel lijkt mij niet aangewezen. Ofwel doe je voor iedere faciliteitsgemeente in de name tag alleen de officiele taal, ofwel beiden in volgorde van officiele - faciliteit.

Met vriendelijke groeten,
Gerard.

I just stumbled upon the wiki page

I was surprised to read e.g. "Note that the "first mapper rule" is
deprecated now." and "In OSM, we have a consensus to use a fixed
order" (both changes made by Gplv2 on Oct 19, 2016)

Not that I care about the order of French and Dutch on those
streetnames, but it would be nice to inform the community about such
an important change via the mailing list, not ? If this is indeed the
consensus I would have violated it since I did not know deprecation of
the first mapper rule.

I asked Gplv2 to point me to the discussion leading to the consensus.

So I have no problems with this being the consensus, I do have a
problem that such an important change is made without informing the
mailing list.

There was a small talk about it around that time in the thread "Some information about Nominatim for addresses in Brussels" on this mailing list.

But there was no real discussion to change it, and certainly no consensus.
