you find something that is not yet documented on the wiki and ask on
the mailing list. If you propose something, discuss it on the mailing
list.
You can also simply use a tag.

When tagging a street name and it seems that the street signs are
incorrect - all businesses on that street use the alternate spelling as

What exactly did you not understand when I explained this to you earlier? I'll

it point's that there is no proposal and there are additional problems.
