Subject: Rendering wish value "suburb"
Hello Artem,
Would it be possible to show the key=place
value="suburbs" on Mapnik with the same rules as
k=place, v=village? In Germany, some suburbs belong to a city or town,
but look from the outside like another village,
e.g. they are situated outside of the city body at
1 km distance. On the map the name of the
neighboring village is shown, while the suburbs name
does not appear. The difference is mainly administrative only.
It appears Mapnik does not render the value
suburb. I do not know who administrates the OSM-Mapnik.
If you do not administrate the
OSM-Mapnik-Tiles, perhaps you could forward it
to the person who does (steve8?).
An example are Dutenhofen, Allendorf and
Münchholzhausen immediately southeast of
Gießen, Germany, which are suburbs. Their
names do not appear in Mapnik. On the other
hand places like Heuchelheim (west of Gießen)
are tagged as villages, and they do appear.
The value suburb is also rendered on the corresponding Osmarender map.
The example link:

Sounds reasonable to me. Can we render place=suburbs ?
Artem
That's "my" tag and certainly reasonable by
me! place=suburb without an s. Yes, the
original intent was that it would render with
basically the same rules as a village.
Here is where we originally used it, Sydney is
place=city, there are some surrounding satellite
place=town and then there are 30 or so suburb tags:

- Sydney at zoom 13 in OSMarender view.
