[Tagging] Ambiguous translations of waterway=dam - should be moved to man_made=dam

Hi We have problems in Brazil with the abiguity of translation of the word “dam”, resulting in new users tagging the waterbody as waterway=dam (translates represa), instead of the dam structure (translates represa). It seems like both the namespace (waterway) and the fact that iD only shows tag

Re: [Tagging] Ambiguous translations of waterway=dam - should be moved to man_made=dam

The iD translations are handled through Transifex https://www.transifex.com/organization/ideditor/dashboard/id-editor So if there is an issue with the way the translations appear in Brazil, you should be able to log in to tra

Re: [Tagging] Money transfer amenities

"Western Union" is a branded money transfer service offered at many other types of businesses -- including convenience stores, some banks, pawn shops and in some countries post offices. *The generic services seem to be:* * Currency exchange (e.g. Dollars for CN ¥) * Low Income Lending (e.g. Payd

Re: [Tagging] Ambiguous translations of waterway=dam - should be moved to man_made=dam

I think redefining waterway=dam is gonna be a hard sell for most Americans. But now thanks to this list I understand why some reservoirs I've worked with in Thailand have had the name of the dam applied to the water behind them as well. As you probably know, many reservoirs in the U.S. have names t

Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - trailhead

But I'd be willing to bet that most trails are not part of a network of other trails or a route but are stand-alone. The trails I once hiked in the Adirondack Mountains in New York State all have names and trailheads but, with a couple of exceptions, are not part of any route. I think the mixed app

Re: [Tagging] Feature Proposal - RFC - trailhead

Trials often overlap with other trails, fire roads (tracks) and may actually be tracks for most of the path until it turns off near the top of a peak or goes away from a restricted access zone. The Subashiri route on Mt Fuji is a pedestrian road, steps, trail, track, trail.. Etc as it overlaps
