Seems all recent edits have been just adding Safeway stores:

The edits seem good (adding building outlines), though I'm not sure
about putting the store number in the name, I've always put that in the
ref tag. What do you think, should we ask the user to change this?

I could see both sides of this - receipts are likely printed "Welcome to Safeway #xxx", and so the map would appear correct and contain additional detail. The disadvantage is that an exact match search for "Safeway" would fail, depending on the search algorithm in use. It's not clear to me how the ref field would be used in conjunction with buildings.
