Sure, that's why I suggested common_language=* (common_language=xx + name:xx=* is just like saying "name=* is in xx"). Could you explain this problem using some examples? > I also don't know what this would imply for areas without formal > government / disputed areas. Whose "official" language would we tag? That's interesting case. How do we tag the borders for such areas? If countries/regions with known official_language=* are overlapping, the language would be known for both and you have to choose one or show both (the same as official_language=xx;yy). Another solution would be to use some special values, like "none" or "disputed" for this area (unfortunately "no" is a code for Norwegian language). -- "My method is uncertain/ It's a mess but it's working" [F.
