I do indeed propose the same method as for bridges, where I h
Hello,
in our localized German map style we try to render Country names in German
with local name in parenthesis.
This works fine for a lot of countries. An example would be Thailand:
Thailand (ประเทศไทย)
or (more readable for westerners) France:
Frankreich (France)
Unfortunately there are some
How would you propose making this change?

Not really, I do not consider rendering something like this a bad idea:

I think we should come up whith a common sense rule what name should usually
contain (hence this discussion) and thus the tagging can be changed by
mappers accordingly.
Currently the state is inconsistent (see Egypt vs. Thailand exam

I suspect that it might take some time before consensus is reached on that one

There have been a number of discussions about "what should be in a name"

Thus one would need an additional external database to render a proper map!
I don't think that this is the way to go in such a simple case.
Frankly I don't care that much about the proper name tag itself, but
So what do _you_ think should be in the "name" tag for Algeria then?
If you think there's a simple answer, I'd suggest that you haven't quite got to
the nub of the problem yet...

Hi Richard,
Not just test tracks. Your post instantly brought to mind the training track at
the Police school outside Merida. I'm sure other Police training establishments
must also have tracks designed for training of advanced driving skills.

There are also test tracks/circuits that are part of the public streets
and just marked with tiny signs.

As an inhabitant of one the countries mentioned with multiple official
languages may I quickly chip in: our previous solution was to simply
leave the name tag empty given that stuffing the 4 official language
variants in to the name tags was rather unwieldy and even so none of

Imagine for a moment an OSM world without the simple name=* tag. All
names have to be qualified with their language, so even in the UK we
would use name:en=*. This would make several things clear:

prefix/suffix recognition, etc
It gets even more complicated in places of disputed sovereignty, where the
choice of name makes a political statement and speech is not as free as it
usually is in the West. In the PRC, it would actually be unlawful to put
the name 中華民國 (or 中华民国) on a map, while in Taiwan, it might be lawful to

Are you talking about the "default map", or the underlying data (i.e.
the contents of name and name:xx tags)? This is the wrong place to
discuss rendering of the default map, and I thought this thread was
about the contents of the name tag. It is probably not a good idea to
discuss rendering choice

In Belgium you can only hunt for a limited period of the year and even
