Most of this cases are probably just bad tagging, but it's possible some of them indeed are multiple objects described in an article. It would be useful to make a KeepRight style map with such problematic objects. > I can also detect if there are two nearby items with the same name but > different tagging.

I think we should map these notable bridges as an area with man_made=bridge and put the tag on that. The very first example of a bridge on your list is already problematic: http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/5620489 Janko
