Yes, but only in the case of tagging the traffic signals at the
intersection node.

Why long names appear on Starbucks stores in Japan when seen on Google Maps
is that the data there is from a third-party map provider, i.e. ZENRIN.
Google discourages such locators as messy, like what you stated, and
descriptive, but they kept the data from ZENRIN as they are on the
original, thoug
I would tag them as internet cafes, you can't get serious coffee there.

Just put "brand:wikidata=Q37158" and you're done with it. Names are not
universal identifiers. Making machine edits to rename hundreds of stores
doesn't help all that much, and can create edit wars.

This is embarrassing but relevant to this conversation. I've been mapping
intensely for several years but adding stop signs was something I rarely
did. There's so much else that needs attention that I wasn't even following
this thread. Then today I was using Osmose to correct errors in Alaska and

I love the idea of adding "brand:wikidata=Q37158" to any Starbucks object
but what people see isn't the wikidata key, what they see is the contents
of the name key. How to tag the name of these places is still a problem
that won't disappear with Janko's solution. Unless, of course, there is a

How do you tag an emergency spillway?
I am tagging a giant flood control reservoir in my region. The “lake” is
surrounded by giant man-made embankments on all sides, surrounded by an
additional set of embankments, with gates to let the water out. There is no
dam per se, because there is ~200

Weir does not seem appropriate for this type of thing. There is a tag,
waterway=spillway, that seems like a good fit - 81 uses so far.
You could also add emergency=yes to the above or create a new tag,
emergency=spillway
