Changeset When Comment
144015479

Having a look at other places, it's moderately common to have multiple languages in the name field. I can see some sense in this, so I've reverted it again (changeset/14404960)

Apologies for being a pain in the arse.

144014981

The other regions have the 'name' tag as English. If you want inconsistent naming, be my guest and revert this.

See osm.wiki/Multilingual_names#Scotland

Choose one, and leave it like that. I don't care what.

137209350

Please do not do this. Choose one language or the other and use that for the 'name' tag. Do not put both in a messy way like this

142824524

The 'name' tag should be only a single language. The policy is that Outer Hebrides names should be in Gaelic, and every other place in English. Apologies if there was any confusion.

Sounds fair, thanks

141788023

Unless there's a sign somewhere, then it's marked as such.

141788023

Not at all. It's not a physical feature, should not be in the database.

141788023

Is this a real thing, or just a filming location. If the latter, please remove it again.

142670251

What do you mean by "check name spelling". OSM doesn't use double entry accounting.

142670283

When you use a wikipedia tag, you prepend which language it's in. In order to get the same article in another language, you'd need to go via wikidata anyway.

Personally, I'm in favour of not duplicating information, so removing wikipedia links makes sense to me

142670283

The wikidata UI isn't really the point though, it's the information that's there that's important. It gives additional information in standardised form, just like OSM tags in the first place

142670283

The advantage of wikidata data is that they're not linking to an article in a specific language. Wikidata entries area always linked to the wikipedia articles anyway.

The 'name' tag should not have multiple languages in it. Please see name=*?uselang=en-GB

Do NOT vandalise the map
