I will add this to the stylesheet when I do some work after the next planet dump - later this week.

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: http://www.informationfreeway.org/?lat=50.562568187435595&lon=8.600855394950692&zoom=13&layers=0000F0B0F Thanks in advance, Michael Galonska Longbow4u on OSM 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: http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=-33.8626&lon=151.2086&zoom=13&layers=0BFT - Sydney at zoom 13 in OSMarender view. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Tag:place%3Dsuburb <http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Tag:place=suburb> - gory details Mike Stockholm
